What does it say about our campaign system that a spoof ad by Paris Hilton contains more substance on energy than a half dozen ads from McCain and Obama combined? I know, I know. The ad was reportedly written by the editor of Funny or Die, the comedy Website on which it appeared. But she memorized it and delivered it with just the right deadpan attitude. Could she be that much worse than the second-raters the major parties have served up for our delectation? Oh, she’s not old enough.
Celebrity-culture-wise, the McCain campaign probably did Paris Hilton the biggest favor anyone has done her since she went to jail. And she took advantage of it almost perfectly.
I have decided to allow Paris Hilton to have MY love child.
But so far she hasn’t responded to any of the 3, 714 emails and letters I’ve sent her on the subject since last week. But I’m sure I’ll here from her any day now.
Ooops. Sorry. I meant, ” ….HEAR from her any day now”.
Paris obviously has some marketing savvy; she can turn anything into a PR boost for herself… thx to McCain’s miscalculation, she’ll be selling more cans of wine than ever
