Song of the Day: Thanksgiving Edition.

Ron Paul Thanksgiving.

What's John Edwards doing on Thanksgiving? How about Hillary?

Here's what the Ron Paul army's planning:

Please join in this grassroots movement and spend the days before Thanksgiving collecting canned goods on Ron Paul's behalf. On November 21, the day before Thanksgiving, thousands of Ron Paul Meetup Groups across the country will deliver the food they've collected to a local foodbank (affiliated with America's Second Harvest) in Ron Paul's name.

Good idea; I just don't know how effective it will be at spreading the word. After all, Americans' attention will be elsewhere, on family and football and fried feathered fowl.

Not to mention the horrid parades.

So I don't know how much media attention this will generate, especially considering the skeleton crews most newsrooms run on Thanksgiving.

But if it's your Good Deed for the Day, and not entirely a publicity stunt, go for it, it's a good cause.
