2012 election through internet memes

source

Some of the caption based memes (quick memes) I have discussed regarding the latest election.
These generally consist of using an untimely photograph and juxtaposing text (impact font) to present a new meaning. For example, below is Jim Lehrer, moderator of the first debate who struggled to tame the two presidential candidates, who often ignored the docile host and constantly cut him off. The painful interaction among the three men prompted the fusion of Lehrer and Gotye’s face to create a spin on the signature “You didn’t have to cut me off” meme'
