RNC to do TRL on MTv

WASHINGTON - For young Americans who care more about G-Unit than the GOP, choosing their favorite music videos on MTV's "Total Request Live" may be as close as they've come to the democratic process.

Republicans are hoping to change that by sending their voter registration truck Thursday to two places where Republicans are usually in short supply: MTV and Times Square.


The National Republican Committee's Reggie the Registration Rig is scheduled to visit the "TRL" studio, where the current contest between President Bush (news - web sites) and Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) usually takes a back seat to the vying videos of Usher and Clay Aiken.



Who are they kidding - a bunch of crusty old white men trying to look hip around young voters?? :eyes:

1. You mean crusty old men like, uh, Bruce Willis?
Don't underestimate the power of right-wing celebreties to snag the attention of young voters.
