I challenge the Obama campaign (or its admirers) to counter with their own Obamatized version of the theme from "Happy Days"

Works with that optimistic HOPE theme, dontcha think?

I was really hoping this would drown out the "Hillary For You and Me" song that still manages to work it's way into my thoughts on occasion. While this does have it's own kind of awfulness, it just can't make that song disappear from my brain. Goddammit. Fucking song...

maybe i'm being a little too sensitive, but the image of hillary clinton holding a dust-buster with accompanying text "time to clean up the white house" [55 sec mark] seems vaguely sexist to me, a la "iron my shirt." you certainly wouldn't see a man in the same context. at least not without laughing your ass off at its sheer absurdity.

so is it okay to co-opt tacky female stereotypes if it's message works in a woman's favor?

Wow, it really is like something Dina Martina would put together but she's serious. Scary!

That doesn't work in either the irony, post-irony, or post-post-irony periods.
