The two versions of the "Karpool Karaoke" video were posted on Facebook after the second presidential debate on Sunday, Oct. 9, and the positive response has been overwhelming. As of today, the two versions have a combined 25,000 hits, which is not all that much by Facebook standards, but still significant.
"We just couldn't NOT do this," said writer Mimi Bommarito of Orinda. She and fellow collaborator Leslie Darwin O'Brien (driver's seat, next to Mimi) have written and performed humorous Meadow Moms' Skit Nights for the last eight years, much to their offspring's mortification, at Meadow Swim and Tennis Club, during OMPA spirit week. "This is an election where we just can't keep quiet and hope everything will work out for the best," she added.
Other Orindans in for the joy ride are (front seat, passenger side) Melissa Matosian Taylor, (back seat, left to right) Betsy Shandalov, Nicole Radlow (who was also part of Leslie and Mimi's infamous "Jiggle Butt Rock" holiday video on You Tube) and Julia Stenzel.
