My mother endorses Barack Obama, all of my friends endorse Barack Obama, and two Kennedys endorse Barack Obama: Ted Kennedy and Caroline Kennedy both. On the last endorsement, you really need to read Caroline Kennedy's op-ed piece in the Times. Here's a choice quote -- and she is speaking about Senator Barack Obama, "I have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me that my father inspired them.

The Road to Firebrand starts next week on ION (at 11PM every weekday night) and online at Firebrand.com. Firebrand loves working with me because I love commercials more than I love television. I am an evangelist. This week, they’re coming down the pike with something called The Road to Firebrand, “the multi-million dollar media buy will include spots on cable networks like MTV, G4, Sci Fi and VHI, as well as online video placements on TVGuide.com, YouTube, MySpace and Facebook, among others.” Check it out — it’s quite good and highlights all of our favorite stars from a lifetime of TV commercials and ads — true icons. Here are the teaser spots: Pregame, Kickoff, and Half Time. Via Chris Abraham
