We had a bunch of wonderful captions this week. Here's a selection of some of the other better lines:

"Just getting a head start before we get smashed at the polls."
"Given the culture of fear, the timing seemed right to switch from Halloween to politics."
"The Democrats are all getting candy -- I got Iraq."
"Ichabod Crane might be strong on education, but he's soft on crime."
"Figured I'd get a cheaper haircut. BIG mistake!"
"In last night's presidential debate, they carved me a new one."
"At least I don't have to worry about MY running mate shooting me in the face."
"Well, you got your witch, your clown, your pirate. I figure, why not?"
"At least there are no skeletons in my closet!"
“The others have their hearts on their sleeves!”
“Chick or Cheat?”
"I should have gone to John Edward's hairdresser."
“One brainless freak. Two empty beers. A lonely bar. Sounds like George Bush’s retirement story.”
"Well yessir, my promises ARE just like my head...empty."
“Hillary, Obama and John walk into a bar. The bartender says, Hey, you can’t bring that dummy in here……”
“If you don’t like this face, I can provide another one.”
"Just give me some money, and I can get ahead!"
"I"m riding the 'dark horse' this election."
"So vote for me, John Edwards - I’m headless, sleepy, AND hollow!"
"When I said we'd have to cut where it hurts, I meant........"
"I was going to dress up as Ron Paul, but I didn't want the 'who are you supposed to be' questions all night!"
