Official campaign video explaining John McCain's heroic efforts to solve the economic crisis facing America today.

What would we ever do without him?

Apologies to Barney Frank!

1. John McCain isn't Mighty Mouse.

He's Andy Kaufman playing Mighty Mouse.

2. That is certainly the image I had in my head:

while I was making this.

In case folks do not know, Barney Frank said this -

"He's been irrelevant to the process. He remains to be," said Frank. "I was afraid that his dropping in here, like Andy Kaufman's Mighty Mouse -- 'here I am to save the day' -- I thought that would slow things down. I didn't see any sign of our Republican colleagues paying any attention to him whatsoever."

and that was totally the inspiration for making this video

3. Love it! But wish it was a little longer.

4. Thanks.

I wanted to make it longer to, but also wanted to get it up while it was topical.
