Election 2008

   If They IM'd: Paris Hilton and John McCain

It's official—the transformation of the election into a reality show is finally complete with the entrance of Paris Hilton into the process. McCain's ad comparing Obama to Paris gave Hilton the small opening (insert Paris sex tape joke here) she needed. So she put out a response video on Funny or Die—one that's actually funny.

And now the McCain camp has released a statement in response to the response. We're even hearing that the election itself might be scrapped and that Flavor Flav will choose between the two candidates himself. (Not really, but that would be a lot more fun than another debate with Jim Lehrer and Gwen Ifill.)

So why did McCain choose Paris Hilton? What else does she have to say to John McCain?
