The Campaign Gets Totally Hot

The Olympics begin Friday, 8/8/08 at precisely 8:08 p.m., promising as much politics and athletic competition.

Which means these are the dog days of American politics.

In other words, the stupid season has official begun.

John McCain drags Paris Hilton into his anti-Obama "celebrity" ads, ignoring the fact that her parents are contributors to the Arizona Republican's campaign.

So Paris is burning. And Paris strikes back, thanks to the funnyordie.com.

No word as to whether Britney, the other celebrity listed with Obama, plans to launch her own campaign/blog video but this would be hard to top.

    Hell, this is probably her best work to date. Of course, I haven't seen her "A Night in Paris" video.

    She can take on Cindy "Head to Head" for Ms buffalo Chip, at Sturgis. They could both do well in the Banana Competition. But that drug conviction helps Cindy

    T. Boone Pickens can use Paris, as a contributing member of America's Wind Corridor. Lot of air in her head.

    Poor Paris should keep her clothes on, her legs closed, and her intellect (such as it is) away from politics, a subject she clearly knows nothing about!
