Judith Martin: Gondoliers for Obama on YouTube (Video)

Judith Martin

I’m in Venice, where everyone keeps telling us how proud they are going to be of us if we elect Obama. To see this carried to its hilarious extreme, check out Gondoliers for Obama on YouTube.

Thank you….so wonderful. The woman managing director of the International Herald Tribuen (she is in Paris) said Europe is all for Obama and believes as these charming Italians do that Obama is the one who can change the world. The French are 93% for Obama…..people are holding parties and staying up through the night to watch. He will be another FDR/JFK.

What a delightful scene! Like Mugsy says, thanks a million! Now I wanna go find all the words to Volare. I’ve been wondering what song I should be singing today. That might be a good one.

This reminds me of when I was in Paris a few years ago and a teen age boy from Belgium asked me if I liked Bush………..I said no………He smiled and said “You are a smart American”…….. I like these Smart Italians…………. Volare Obama

Thank you for the gondoliers, Judith. That was fun! But now I feel the need to track down a certain Dean Martin recording…
