jesus h & r christ on a cracker....can't stand to hear her voice!

This was made by an Obama supporter, not the campaign - and they don't approve of it.
(And I'd argue that whoever made this doesn't quite "get" the message of the Obama campaign, either.)

Besides, this is the kind of mudslinging you'll see a lot more of in the Republican primaries.

McD or BK. Take your pick. Do you want Coke or Pepsi to ruin your country and spend all your money?

I'm just a fan of George Orwell, not so much Hillary or Barak...

Well, if you are talking dems vs republicans is pepsi/coke, well I also disagree with alot of the dems views, but face it, when you look at the people who actually have been presidents, as opposed to those striving to be one, you cant help but to wonder.. What are their motives, their goals? personal fortune, money?, Power? or is there something real there, like an urge to help, or change things for the better? In this light, I would suggest looking at what ex-presidents do, after all, they've already had the power and glory, now what can they do?`Look at Carter, ever since leaving, he has been a strong peace advocate, a negotiator and uniter.. look at clinton, his foundation and his fight against HIV/Aids. None of them had to do any of that, and indeed I cant think of any republicans who have done similar things, Nixon retired in shame, Reagan, well he got ill, Bush Sr. continued to pet the Bush clan business relations, and pulled the strings on junior so he could fuck up everything he himself never got around to fuck up.

I cant Imagine Dubya going into charity work on retirement day either..

Again, not saying the democrats are all angels or something, but there seems to be this fundamental gap in the sort of values these two blocks represent. The only "decency" to speak of among the republicans seems to be this rather fake and mad "christian values" they profess. Values derived from 2000 year old judean life and war rules that doesnt make sense in the 2007 western world.

Both parties use the same lies and rhetorical clichés to win the votes, but the real test is what they do with the power when or if they get it

I think the fundamental gap is the fact that most people who have values are far more attracted by the lucrative corporate world then in politics.

joe, your apathy and passivity is an inspiration.

be different, wear an iPod...haha yeah right.

i know this isn't an 'advocated' video by any administration, but i just really wish we could, as a country, get back to "vote for me because i will do this" instead of "don't vote for him because s/he's a bad wo/man and used to do this."

the mudslinging is really out of hand nowadays, not just in the primaries but all the way down the line. there are exceptions, i know. i just wish it was the norm, and not the exception.

"It may be the most stunning and creative attack ad yet for a 2008 presidential candidate -- one experts say could represent a watershed moment in 21st century media and political advertising.

Yet the groundbreaking 74-second pitch for Democratic Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, which remixes the classic "1984" ad that introduced Apple computers to the world, is not on cable or network TV, but on the Internet. "

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Hackneyed and over-exposed. Not a fan, (though I'm voting for Obama).

Everyone ought to lighten up, really. I'm speaking collectively and not just VS here. When are we going to be able to see past media and look at these candidates' merit and qualifications as responsible adults should?

If one is on the fence between Clinton and Obama, and this video helps them make up their minds, then heaven help us. This country has learned nothing.

Agreed swampgirl.

This was pretty controversial when it was released, even I didn't think it was appropriate then.

Looking back, this really encapsulates how I ended up feeling about the contest between these two candidates.
