I LOVED the QVC spot!
And I liked the “sad grandpa” strategy!
Frankly, I think he was very smart to do this gig. He got about ten minutes of glorious air time, showing his best traits (sense of humor, charm, friendliness, willingness to laugh at himself, etc.) and also his beautiful wife!–without having to spend several million dollars of precious money.
It seems so obvious to me that if Sen. Obama wins, it will be because he spent more money. Will that be his answer to every problem in the U.S.–throw more money at it? God help us.
Now it’s too bad that 14-year-olds (the target audience for SNL!) can’t vote!
