Undecided voters: If the moving speech below can't entice you to vote for Sen. Barack Obama for president, maybe this'll help: His favorite TV show is The Wire(!) "Michael Kostroff, an actor who was in town to volunteer for Obama and had a chance to meet him, told the Sun that Obama’s favorite TV show is his own: HBO’s 'The Wire,' which chronicles Baltimore’s violent drug culture and the police who quixotically try to stop it. Obama told the Sun his favorite character is Omar, a stick-up artist who steals from drug dealers and then gives the loot to poor people in the neighborhood. 'That’s not an endorsement. He’s not my favorite person, but he’s a fascinating character.'"

Update: Episode 54 is now On Demand.
