Barack Obama's 30 minute INFOMERCIAL October 29,2008

Obama's ad ran on several broadcast and cable networks last night reportedly at a cost of more than $3 million. It intertwined the stories of families facing financial and personal difficulties with segments in which the candidate discussed how he plans to help them and other Americans like them overcome their challenges.

Cillian Spain and I took a motorcycle ride over to the lake yesterday afternoon. I got a chance to try out his Triumph. I thought it small, nimble and uncomfortable compared to my Harley.

Biden and Palen Vice Presidential Debate on SNL

Sarah Silverman and The Great Schlep

An amusing but serious campaign by comedian Sarah Silverman. Heard tonight on the news that even though to date nearly 800,000 folks have viewed the Silverman Youtube video so far only about 100 "grand kids" have actually made the trip to Florida to lobby their grandparents on Obama's behalf.
