Dana, yeah, that's what I meant. I should have written "don't run."

This is the sort of thing a copywriter is supposed to know. I am still learning, but at least I've got the right idea.

Don't vote for a Democrat. Vote for Paris Hilton!

The two choices seem to be of comparable intelligence, yes.

No Democratic candidate seems worthy of my vote this time, either.

Is it true that she's decided to run for president? There was a clip of her on the news last night in her togs by the pool telling people to vote for her.

That's actually a cheerful little satire on the current string of campaign ads from each candidate -- that is put up by I forget which genuine candidate. Fun, but I'll have to wait for it to come around in the news cycle again to refresh on which is doing it to the other. They seem rather to be replacing stump speeches with dueling ads this go-round.

She did that in response to McCain running ads accusing Obama of being a celebrity like herself and Spears.

Why would anyone feel insulted at being compared to a politician? [/snicker]

I have an actor acquaintance named Mark -- family man, conservative, a handful of kids largely home schooled -- who is a bit miffed to have his physical resemblance to Al Gore pointed out. But he might be persuaded to play Al Gore on stage if a sufficiently satirical part could be written.
