Mixed Mind

I have to admit, when I heard about the 30 minute Obama speech/commercial, I had doubts. This post discusses some pitfalls, but my doubt is more basic. Seeing political commercials between TV shows is one thing, but preempting or postponing Tv for 30 minutes quite another.

The end result is that people who like Obama will likely watch or, at the very least, not be annoyed.

Other people, though, will – at best ignore it, and at worst be annoyed by it. In the end, I think it has more potential for harm to Obama than help.
