The Campaign for Kelly’s Final Rose

Written by Pat's Papers | Monday, 23 April 2012 7:38 AM

So apparently, I’m a contestant on “The Bachelor.” David Hinckley writes about the ongoing co-host search for someone to join Kelly Ripa in his New York Daily News column this morning. He says it’s hard to miss the “courtship aspect” of the search, made all the more visible by a “tongue-in-cheek ‘Bachelor’ motif.” Ratings are up 10 percent over last year, but the show’s producers say they won’t allow it to go on forever.

Hinckley wrote a very perceptive review of my first appearance on Live!, so I’ll respectfully disagree with him when he says I have campaigned almost as hard for this as Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are campaigning for President. Yes, I’d like the job and I’ll say that when asked.  But I have a much smaller campaign budget, and my campaign requires less travel.

(For those who are following the campaign, my next appearances with Kelly are Monday, April 30 and Tuesday, May 1.)
