I was just watching a report on Obama's new running mate on BBC1 News, from a rally in Illinois. Playing on the tannoy I could hear The National's 'Mr November'.

Sounds like the Democrats have picked it up as an anthem or something. When I interviewed Scott Devendorf recently for Big Issue Cymru - http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/3829668
- he told about the t-shirts they'd made as a way of showing their support, but i can't help wondering how they feel about being this closely associated with the campaign. Look what happened to D:Ream after Blair used his song in the '97 election.
