The Cosmetic Campaign

Here's JibJab with another very popular satire of the US election campaign. It's called 'Time for Some Campaignin'. As we see it on YouTube it now has 18,000 views but may be up to over a couple of million by the end of today. (Update: see the stats as of two days later here.)

Well, if this is really a "cosmetic" campaign, Obama is going to win by a landslide. Yeah, I know McCain is older and has had health problems related to skin cancer, but as the video seems to suggest, his face reminds us all a bit too much of our own mortality. I know a few cosmetic surgeons in Glens Falls, NY and across the country who are probably the last people who would want to see this campaign turn into a pretty contest. I hope that all Americans can take a look at where these candidates stand and make judgements based on what they say, not how they look. There's a reason they say that politics is "show business for ugly people."
