Lo and behold! Mention 'celebrity' in an ad, as Obama did today,

and it actually does get aired. :wow: Issues DON'T matter! Those pics of */McCrabby work well, too.

Granted, I'm talking about 3 hours on m$nbc, but still...

1. The M$M can be played like a fiddle.

Give 'em shit, and they roll in it.

2. Hey, whatever works. Some free advertisement wouldn't be bad.

McLAme has been profiting from it.

6. Yes. It's not a big deal, I guess, because no one cared at the time:

7. Personally I find funding a voter registration drive infinitely more substantive

than mud-slinging ads.

Thanks for calling this to my attention. I suspect much is lost in the flurry of posts here at DU. :)

8. You're welcome. I think, if someone wants to support Obama

9. It's the very essence of hope.

I wish I had seen that too. I take excursions out on the road on the campaign more frequently now. Thanks for linking me to that great story.
