Carl Paladino has finally made it to the big time today: like Brett Favre, Islamophobia and Stephen Slater, he's now received the Taiwanese CGI treatment, courtesy of Next Media Animation. In this hot-off-the-hard-drive video, he's depicted as a 1920s-style gangster (...we think), literally taking out reporter Fred Dicker with his tommy gun. They hit all the major sweet spots of his endlessly amusing gubernatorial campaign: bestiality emails, love child, unsubstantiated accusations of Cuomo, the fight with Dicker, the "prowess" comment, the anti-gay remarks, and his fading popularity. Most bizarrely, he's wearing a fedora for the majority of his greatest hits recreation.
