HARRY & LOUISE TAKE A (POLITICAL) TURN FOR THE WORSE
Remember Harry and Louise, the insurance industry's suburban juggernaut aimed at shooting holes in support for the White House health-care plan? The straight-talking couple, who starred in a series of ads earlier this year, were concerned about losing their freedom to choose their own doctor. Well, they switched parties. And now, in an ad sponsored by the Democratic National Committee, Harry and Louise find themselves facing a major health-care crisis. He's muffled with bandages, has lost his job and insurance.
