Sherrod Brown

Billy Mays Gets Competition at the Democratic Convention

I joked about the hokeyness of last nights "Town Hall" segment at the Democratic National Convention during our Live Blog session and suggested that Billy Mays would be the next guest. Apparently Michael Goldfarb of the McCain campaign agreed.

Sherrod Brown vs. Billy Mays

It's unlikely many voters caught this part of the DNC last night, and those who did were probably contractually obligated to do so. Still, there was something familiar about Sherrod Brown's performance as the host of "America's Town Hall," where he took questions from "regular voters" and put them to an all-star panel of Democrats. My favorite moment:
MS. TYSON:...So Senator Obama has a real plan -- get the economy moving again immediately, grow the economy for the future, do it in a fiscally responsible way. Senator McCain: More of the same, Bush-failed policies.

SEN. BROWN: Thank you, Laura. She's exactly right. With Barack Obama, it's a strong progressive middle class agenda. With John McCain, it's in essence a third term for George Bush?

MS. TYSON: Third term for George Bush.

SEN. BROWN: All right. Next question.
Careful panelists, the questions only get harder!

The video from Day One of the Democratic Infomercial is not to be missed:
