Chik-Fil-A Flap Added to 2012 Campaign Game, Iran Attack De-Emphasized [The Political Machine]

The Political Machine, the PC game that lets you play out the Obama-Romney race for yourself has been updated to keep up with current events (and tweak some gameplay). Now you can make your candidate be for or against Chik-Fi-Let, which presumably means being for or against the fast food chain's opposition to gay marriage.

Other updates, via the Political Machine's public relations machine:

Added new issues to reflect current political climate:Added "Chick-fil-et" as a new issueAdded "Provide Tax Returns" as a new issueAdded "Gov. Builds Business" as a new issueDecreased importance of "Military Strike on Iran" and "High Gas Prices" to reflect current political climateUpdated electoral votes for states that had census changesFixed issue where custom candidates couldn't be selected in multiplayerFixed memory leak that could lead to poor performance in very long gamesFixed stability issues when a second game is started after a game has already been playedFixed multiplayer victory achievementFixed a bug with a custom female body option referencing the wrong modelFixes for various rare stability issuesFixed multiplayer sync issue where the turn would sometimes not advance

Hmm. Iran policy won't be that big a deal? I guess it is the year of the economy.
