Quick BGP Question

When using a "neighbor x.x.x.x default-originate" statement on a host site router, how can I set that default route with a longer AS path?

I have the default-originate statement in the BGP process and I also have a route-map that does:

route-map prepend permit 10
set as-path 8 8 8

and then
router bgp 10
neighbor x.x.x.x route-map prepend out

BUt when I go to a branch site router and do a show ip bgp, I see the default route with only a single ASN prepended. All the other networks that I am advertising from the backup host site are getting the prepended AS path, but not the default route.

I need to use a second point of entry as a site failover so I want to have default originate on both host sites, but advertise a longer AS path from the backup site. The 2 host sites are connected via MetroE.
There is no place like 127.0.0.1 BUT 209.62.5.3 is my 127.0.0.1 away from 127.0.0.1!
