Barack Obama Friday found a novel way to appeal to the white blue-collar voters he badly needs to win in Ohio: Get Al Bundy to campaign for him.
And so Ed O'Neill, the actor who portrayed the embattled husband and father on "Married with Children" came to Youngstown, Ohio, to stump for the Democratic nominee.
O'Neill got a big welcome from the crowd at Youngstown State University, which had gathered to hear Sen. Hillary Clinton. "I haven't been here in 10 years," O'Neill said, 'and I usually don't get involved in politics."
Then he recalled growing up here, and urged a vote for Obama. The crowd in this working-class town loved it.
Al Bundy, the sexist pig who hated to have sex with his wife and take care of her and his kids? Uh, ok.
My my my, now we turn on Al Bundy for supporting Obama. Maybe it's because the real life Ed O'neil is rational, intelligent and discerning. Al Bundy the fictional character with the characteristics you note would clearly be pro McCain/Palin. Yes you are right on with your analysis.
