So somebody has been playing funny games on twitter; playing the "MikeRann" character. This character parodied the Premier of South Australia, Mike Rann.
In a similar fashion to Fake Steve Jobs and Fake Chuck Westfall; it was obvious to all that this was not really Mike Rann.
This was a legitimate political satire carried out between 'sockpuppets', using twitter as the medium.

As of approximately 3pm today; These accounts vanished from twitter. I took some screen shots to show that these characters still exist in search, and hopefully will for a little longer.

There is possibly a google cache of these conversations.
