BTW, I've suggested something like this script (for a WI Senate campaign ad) before but not gotten much response. Anyone like it?

Person #1: Hey, that gold sure is fine.
Person #2: Yup. That sure is some [GONG!]
#1: What was that?
#2: That's the McCain-[GONG!] alert. It ensures compliance with the McCain-[GONG!] rules that forbid us from talking about politicians or candidates seeking election, like Senator [GONG!].
#1: Huh?
#2: Well, Senator [GONG!] realized that if people knew what politicians were up to, they might not re-elect them. So he helped write the McCain-[GONG!] Act to help politicians keep people in the dark.
#1: But doesn't that contradict the First Amendment?
#2: Yeah, but [GONG!] doesn't care. He'd rather be re-elected than respect the Constitution he swore to uphold.
#1: That's pretty crummy. When does he face election?
#2: On November (?). I hope you'll join me in voting against him. #1: Sure will. Oh, and as I said, that gold sure is fine.

Perhaps a bit too long, but I think it gets the point across.
