Getting A Bad Rap: MC Rove

It's a rite of spring in Washington, DC, for the President to get up in front of the annual Radio and TV Correspondent's Dinner and make a fool of himself. Last night's dinner was no exception ... and President Bush had no trouble poking a little fun at himself, and getting a laugh from the Washington press corps. But, if you've been on YouTube today, you already know that the President was upstaged last night. Who knew that MC Karl Rove could rap?!? And dance, for that matter? If you haven't seen it, it's worth the price of admission. And in our continuing efforts to make everything a teachable experience, we'll try and figure out what the popularity of the Rapping Rove video tells us about how to score big on YouTube.

Sorry but where Rove and associates are concerned nothing these people do is funny.
