Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman to deliver his Top 10 List of Barack Obama campaign promises. Among the promises: Oprah will be Vice President and Mitt Romney will be Secretary of Lookin’ Good. Perhaps most importantly, in demonstrating utmost fiscal responsibility, Obama promises: “I will double your tax money at the craps table.”



As the New York Times‘ Brian Stelter notes.

Mr. Obama is the third presidential candidate to appear on “The Late Show” this month. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton welcomed Mr. Letterman back to television on Jan. 2 after a two-month strike-induced hiatus. Former Senator John Edwards visited Mr. Letterman in New York on Tuesday.

“The Late Show” is essentially the only late-night television show that the Democratic candidates can appear on, because all three candidates have pledged their support for the striking members of the Writers Guild of America who are actively picketing outside the studios of Jay Leno, Jon Stewart and other talk show hosts.
