Obama Team had better get on Ellen, Letterman, Leno and FAST

42. It's not the Right Wing we need to convince.

It's the half of America that usually stays home we need to convince.

The LAST thing we need is a mass rush to the polls by people who normally don't vote and don't follow politics believing Republicans are the heroes that will save them from a big tax hike.

I've actually met these types at parties.

Second Bush term. Height of the crap when WMDs were exposed as a fraud and the question I was asked? "Is George Bush a Republican or a Democrat?"

Seriously. That person never voted before and still hasn't.

Then you have the ones who hate both sides but can't be specific why and don't want to talk about it.

They don't know SQUAT about ANYTHING but they know Alan Alda and know he played a doctor on a show they liked so they won't flip the channel right away. And YES. If possible, put him in character as Hawkeye Pierce home from war in private practice in Crabapple Cove, Maine and have other surviving members from MASH appear too. Wouldn't it be great to hear him call in his wife and it turns out to be Hotlips? Grab their attention and hold it. Maybe SOMETHING will sink in and calm their fears.

If this sounds silly, consider that Ron Howard did a video playing Oppie Taylor with Andy Griffith as his dad by the fishing hole and then played Richie Cunningham with Henry Winkler as The Fonz to let America know Obama wasn't Satan like the Republicans were claiming.
