Obama AD: Hillary Will 'Say Anything and Change Nothing' (AUDIO)
The script reads as follows:

Obama: "I’m Barack Obama, running for president and I approve this message."

Announcer: "It’s what’s wrong with politics today. Hillary Clinton will say anything to get elected. Now she’s making false attacks on Barack Obama.

"The Washington Post says Clinton isn’t telling the truth. Obama 'did not say that he liked the ideas of Republicans.' In fact, Obama’s led the fight to raise the minimum wage, close corporate tax loopholes and cut taxes for the middle class.

"But it was Hillary Clinton, in an interview with Tom Brokaw, who quote 'paid tribute' to Ronald Reagan’s economic and foreign policy. She championed NAFTA –- even though it has cost South Carolina thousands of jobs. And worst of all, it was Hillary Clinton who voted for George Bush’s war in Iraq.

"Hillary Clinton. She’ll say anything, and change nothing. It’s time to turn the page. Paid for by Obama for America."

1. Obama's race is finished. It only took 3 weeks to take it into the toilet.
No more hope, no more change, just "what she said". He's a fool.

20. Obama is all the Clinton Campaign has talked about for weeks
They been in the shitter from the word go.

They are attempting to drag Obama down in and the shout, "Hey look he's just like us. He's no different."

Fortunately, all Obama must do is remind the Public of something which they are already aware, the Clintons questionable integrity.

The American People have seen all that play before, and they're looking for something new.
There is no way the Clintons can try to sell themselves as 'Agents of Change' now.

2. That ad rather hits the nail on the head, doesn't it!
Great ending - "turn the page".

10. I'm so confused
Edited on Wed Jan-23-08 11:44 PM by kerrygoddess
Obama says "Hillary will say anything." And you, an Obama supporter say "Obama's record: he will say anything."

Who's right if they both will say anything?

Oh this is dreadful!

23. You're getting Jackson Dem confused with Jefferson Dem.
It's Jefferson Dem who supports Obama. Jackson Dem does not, to put it mildly.

7. Good comeback. but
What a shame these campaigns have gone to ditch fighting. All our nominees should be sending an uplifting competent message. This does nothing but diminish whoever gets the nomination. The country does not want to see this mess.

8. The problem with his ad, is that her ad has direct quotes from Obama
in his own voice.
I really think someone made a bad decision here. I guess we'll find out how the ads are received soon enough.

17. Obama is moving closer to a scorched earth campaign against Clinton
It wasn't so long ago that Democratic candidates would sound less harsh than this in their attacks on Republicans. It is the sweeping nature of the charge: "She will say ANYTHING" that stands out. A Standard primary attack from one Democrat to another is more along the lines of "so and so deliberately misrepresented my record when s/he said..." Or "so and so is playing loose with the facts again". This Ad goes way past that. This ad virtually accuses Hillary Clinton of being a total sociopath. This level of attack, the equivalent of: "You can't believe a word she says because she will do anything for power" is more virulent than the attacks John Kerry made on George W. Bush during the 2004 Presidential campaign. If Obama claims that his message is uplifting compared to Clinton's that is partially being accomplished now by shoving her down while claiming she thrives in the mud.

Barack Obama isn't attacking George W. Bush with these words. He is saying that the women who at the very least is the co-favorite to become the Democratic nominee for President has absolutely no regard for the truth. He is saying that about a woman who is very popular with very large segments of the Democratic base. And he is saying this about the woman who may be all that stands between America being ruled for 4 more years by a Republican President come next November. Couple this with Obama's comments that hint at his support not all being transferable to Clinton if he doesn't win the nomination and ask yourself who is really undermining the chance for Party unity after our primaries are over?

Yet for now the media meme is that it is Hillary and/or Bill Clinton who are being divisive and going negative. The media meme is that Hillary Clinton is the one who is tearing the Democratic Party apart while trying to win its nomination. This is a very interesting and dangerous strategy Obama is embracing. I wonder if he will get away with it, and I wonder what the after effects of it will be once the nomination battle is concluded.
