Opie for Obama
Ron Howard, Andy Grffith, and Henry Winkler revived some old characters to promote Barack Obama. It's funny, sentimental, and slightly horrifying all at the same time.
“I’ve never done this before and I hope never to do it again, but I guess you could say I’m feeling pretty desperate these days,” Howard said in the video. “So, as a demonstration of my sincerity, this is for you America.”
Hooray, first Colin Powell, now the Sheriff of Mayberry.
Take that, McCain campaign! With these images and endorsements, how can NC NOT vote for Obama?
Can't get much more “real American" or "pro-American" than decent, small town Mayberry folk...or "Happy Days" times when teens came home before curfew and The Fonz was as bad as rebels got.
Yes, yes, I know it probably won't make a whit of difference, but it's still heartening to see.
