Next time, can we get someone better than 'P. Diddy' to GOTV?

[Zuni]

I'm sorry.

1. You mean..

"I didn't know wearing a suit was a skill..." P.Diddy?

No shit!

[FullCountNotRecount]

13. You're Full or Crap. The Youth Vote was up...(Sorry wrong thread)

They voted 55-44 for Kerry. What you talkin' 'bout, Willis?

[LosinIt]

2. Small mindedness like that is what is wrong

He did a good job, worked really hard, so what is wrong with that?

[gmoney]

3. R. Kelly?

Maybe Kobe?

7. Vote or I'll piss on you

4. Regardless of how you feel about P-Diddy

I thought what he was trying to do was very good.
As well as what Russell Simmons tried to do to get more young, "minority" voters out there.

At least P-Diddy stood up for the cause.

5. If he really wanted to be involved ...

He could have just joined forces with " Rock The Vote " . I think he really wanted to get the youth out to vote , don't get me wrong .

6. i really mean no disrespect to p diddy, and i don't

watch TV that much, and certainly have not watched MTV for 15 years, but i had a really hard time deciding what side he was on. It seemed like he was doing the gotv for the other side.

9. Technically, he was non-partisan.

As is rock the vote. If he appeals to young voters, than statistically, he was on out side.

8. i thought he did a good job

I've posted it elsewhere and maybe I'm being a tad humorless but we had black students stand on line 8 hours at Dillard and Xavier Universities in New Orleans to vote. In a "red" state. P. Diddy did his part, the young African-Americans did their part. Now we need to do our part to make sure they have enough voting machines in their district in future.

10. I thought he did a great job. n/t

[tjdee]

11. He's enormously influential to young people.

They all know who he is, for example.

If you're saying he didn't get enough people, I really think you'd be hard pressed to find another figure as well known and respected as he is among young people.

12. Well, "Vote or Die" was an unconvincing slogan

A little too hyperbolic at first blush to be effective. "Vote or I'll Cap You Like I Capped Biggie", on the other hand, now that would've lit a fire under people.
