http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnL9HRLNxIADemocratic presidential contender Barack Obama made an appearance — via satellite while campaigning in Beaufort, South Carolina — on David Letterman’s “Late Show” on Thursday to read the show’s traditional “Top 10″ list.
The Top 10 Barack Obama campaign promises:
10. To keep the budget balanced, I’ll rent the Situation Room for sweet 16s.
9. I will double your tax money at the craps table.
8. Appoint Mitt Romney secretary of lookin’ good.
7. If you bring a gator to the White House, I’ll wrassle it.
6. I’ll put Regis on the nickel.
5. I’ll rename the 10th month of the year “Barack-tober.”
4. I won’t let Apple release the new and improved iPod the day after you bought the previous model.
3. I’ll find money in the budget to buy Letterman a decent hairpiece.
2. Pronounce the word nuclear, nuclear.
1. Three words: Vice President Oprah.
When the Top 10 was finished, Letterman said, “Sen. Barack Obama, thank you very much for helping us out, senator. Good luck with the campaign.”
Obama replied, “Thank you so much, David, but you can’t muss my hair” — a reference to Letterman messing up rival John Edwards’s hair during his Late Show appearance on Tuesday.
Said Letterman, “OK, whatever you say.”
