Obama has decided in a last ditch effort to do an interview on the highly conservative Fox News network this week in order to arouse any last support for the health care bill that is next set to be voted on in the House this Friday. It is unclear however, whether this is will be a helpful move or not on the President's behalf. I highly doubt that he will be received with warm welcomes, or if his interview will be anything other than ridiculed by the Republican viewers. I think it is a smart move though, as, with Obama's charisma, I doubt it will mar his appearance to his existing supporters. In fact, it may force the people of Fox News to behave with slightly more decorum than usual, because now that the world is focusing on them and their behavior and reaction to seemingly logical comments by the President, they will have to appear more thoughtful and less reactionary. One can only hope that this will finally be the encouraging factor that will allow the Republicans and Democrats to work together and pass a bill on health care once and for all.
