Breaking: Subliminal Pro-Obama messages in Clinton campaign ads
In a post yesterday over at democraticunderground.com a newspaper clip used in a Hillary Clinton ad was blown up to show that the headline was a fake. Initially it seemed as though this was simply a matter of laziness on Clinton's part. They couldn't find the headline they wanted so they made one up and pasted it over a different article.
As the Democratic Underground points out however, the story below it is not just any story, it is regarding troopergate. Troopergate is the story of an allegation that two Arkansas state troopers had arranged a sexual liaison for Bill Clinton back when he was the Governor of the state.
When I saw this it occurred to me that maybe this was more than a coincidental slip up by someone producing a pro-Clinton ad. It seemed too good to have happened by chance.
Sure enough when I replayed the ad looking for other signs of anti-Clinton propaganda I found it.
If you pause the video at about ten seconds, which is the same time the fake headline is on the screen, you can see the other anti-Hillary message. Look up and to the left of the headline. You'll see Hillary Clinton talking to someone. Underneath are the words "Clinton aides admit, it won't do much for you, but would help her politically." From the voice-over it seems that the clips are from an Obama ad, but it doesn't seem like the best choice to flash across the screen.
What is going on over there? Are her people revolting? Did some sort of anti-Hillary force infiltrate the video production team?
I want to get this posted now, but I will do some research and see what I can find. In the mean time maybe some other ambitious people out there can begin looking into it as well.

Kanter had an interesting little blog post about the fact that
Congress, which technically has the exclusive authority to declare war,
has not done so with regard to Iraq (or any of the last several wars

pronouncement that "Only Congress can declare war†more...

Throughout the course of the bruising heavyweight bout between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the title of Democratic nominee, much was made of the effect that the battle would have on the prospects of Democrats in the Fall. The mudslinging, the name-calling, the shots at experience and policy- for the most part, it appeared that the pu more...

I have been saying it for months now, Barack Obama is the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party. And now that he has clinched a victory in pledged delegates the remaining contests in Puerto Rico, South Dakota and Montana are nothing more than a formality.
Of those three contests none appear to have a chance to play a roll in the General Ele more...

November 4th, 2008 is rapidly approaching, 161 short days from now.
No one knows for sure what the outcome of the election will be, but yesterday two things became clear; 1). Bob Barr's name will be almost as well known as Ralph Nader's and 2). Barack Obama is likely to receive at least some sort of an Electoral Map boost from Barr in more...

What a difference a day makes.
In my last post I narrowed down the Vice Presidential field to the four candidates most likely to be on the ticket with Barack Obama in the fall and today we can already cross Hillary Clinton off of that list.
Friday afternoon in an interview with the Argus Leader newspaper in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Hillary Cli more...
