TOLEDO, Ohio Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown, introducing Barack Obama at a conference center here, told a crowd of more than 3,000 that they could help bring favorite Democratic bogeyman Bill OReilly to tears on Election Day.
Ohio is a key swing state, and Brown told the crowd that if they voted and made sure their friends and neighbors did the same, they could go home after the polls close, sit down in a big, comfortable chair maybe you bought a big, wide, wide flat-screen TV so you can watch election returns and you can see, when you see these election returns on these wide screens, you can see peoples sweat, you can see tears a little better, all that.
At about 11:30 pm, he told the crowd, they should switch over to Fox News, the network on which the right-leaning OReilly hosts a top-rated talk/news show.
About quarter till 12 on election night, its gonna be Bill OReilly sitting there with Sean Hannity, he said, drawing another cascade of jeers from the crowd at the mention of another popular conservative Fox host.
