Possible clues about Obama's 30 minute infomercial ...
This is a story about Obama's 30 minute ad being broadcast in Spanish. But it seems to suggest what the theme of the special will be- stories of Americans, presumably with Obama offering them solutions.

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/10/27/obamas_30-minute_program_will.html

The Barack Obama campaign will air a Spanish-language version of its 30-minute infomercial on Wednesday night on Univision, the highest-rated Spanish language television network.

"Barack Obama: Historias Americanas," or "Barack Obama: American Stories," will air at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific time (7 p.m. Central and Mountain time), the same time the English-language version airs on CBS, Fox and NBC. Democratic Miami Mayor Manny Diaz announced the arrangement during a conference call with reporters.

"The ad is going to highlight real American stories from across the nation," Diaz said. "This ad buy is historical. The fact that it will air on Univision is testament that to the campaign's outreach to the Hispanic community."

2. Maybe he will offer abuse and ridicule instead of solutions- that would be a curveball :)

3. Yeah really. Maybe he'll smear his opponents and their families. That would be different.
