It is time for the American voter to do a reality check when the energy plan proposed by Paris Hilton in her recent Web video spoof actually makes sense and makes it into the Congressional Record.

Her plan is a hybrid of the John McCain and the Barack Obama plans, and may, in fact, bear further study.

In an era where reality shows rule the air waves, perhaps it is time to bring reality into the political arena and to stop negative ads that serve only to turn off American voters when so much is at stake in this coutnry’s future.
