...against Jonah Golberg?

Springer's made in infomercial.

The infomercial focuses on a comment by National Review commentator Jonah Goldberg on a Sunday morning CNN talk show several months ago.

In his remark, Goldberg warned of new people brought to the polls by Springer including "slack-jawed yokels, hicks, weirdos, pervs and whatnots."

The infomercial offers that quote on a T-shirt and inserted into a signed photograph of Springer next to a sign for Hicksville, Ohio, in Defiance County in northwest Ohio. In the program, Springer refers to the quote and talks about wanting to reach out to "regular folks ... who weren't born with a silver spoon in your mouth."

Goldberg said Thursday he doesn't understand how the country's politics would benefit from a massive voter turnout by Springer supporters.

"Springer says he'll be bringing new voters to the polls," Goldberg said in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "Well, okay. But if these people couldn't be bothered to vote until Springer encouraged them to, maybe we were better off without them in the first place."

An Ohio Poll conducted by the University of Cincinnati in February found 71 percent of those surveyed had an unfavorable opinion of Springer, the highest such number in the poll's history.

Given the choice I'd vote for the Simpsons fan...

On the bright side, Springer didn't come to America until he was 5 so there's no chance he could become President... unless of course they pass an amendment a la Demolition Man so Ahhhnuld can run.
