"Hilary's disturbing increase in Republican like-inism"

McCain's Fear Ad which was plagiarized by Hilary Clinton The Ad starts with a panoramic of Washington DC The caption reads: WHITE HOUSE - 3 AM January 21, 2009 Dramatization The Teletype writes: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XX FLASH XX FLASH XX FLASH CLASSIFIED SUBJ: SPECIAL WEAPON MISSING 1. FOREIGN STATION CHIEF REPORTS SECURITY BREACH AND THEFT OF SPECIAL WEAPON BY UNKNOWN TERRIOST GROUP (Misspelling in in AD) DESTINATION UNKNOWN 2. NOTIFY THE PRESIDENT IMMEDIATELY BREAK TRANSMITION White House - Living Quarters 3:03 AM January 21, 2009 Who do you want to answer the phone? John McCain Sen. Hillary Clinton's New Ad Sen. Hillary Clinton has a new TV ad up which uses one of her main arguments against Sen. Barack Obama, her rival for the Democratic presidential nomination. It boils down to she's ready, he's not, to be in the Oval Office when a national-security emergency occurs in the wee small hours of the morning. She has repeatedly used this argument in her stump speech. It plays to the image of toughness she has with many Democratic voters. The ad shows a series of small children asleep in the middle of the night. It's clearly meant to appeal to women, the part of the Democratic electorate that had been among her strongest supporters but has been eroding as women have become more willing to support Obama. It’s 3 am and your children are safe and asleep But there’s a phone in the White House and it’s ringing Something’s happening in the world Your vote will decide who answers that call. Whether it’s someone who already knows the world’s leaders, knows the military - someone tested and ready to lead in a dangerous world It’s 3 am and your children are safe and asleep Who do you want answering the phone? It is very interesting that her husband, former President Bill Clinton gave a Democratic Response on fear and hope, I guess that more than interesting, it can be labeled "Ironic" "Now one of Clinton’s laws of politics is this: If one candidate’s trying to scare you and the other one’s trying to get you to think, if one candidate’s appealing to your fears and the other one’s appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope." Obama's co-opts Clinton's Video One of the impressive things of the Obama's campaign is the speed in which they respond. They use Hilary's Ad and really turn it against them. In a direct response to a Hillary Clinton television ad, Barack Obama's campaign Friday released its own 30 second spot raising the prospect of an early morning foreign policy crisis. "It’s 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep," the ad's narrator states in an obvious take off of the Clinton ad released earlier in the day. "But there’s a phone ringing in the White House. Something’s happening in the world. The brilliant part is that when people hear HRC's Ad, they immediately will think of Obama's - Inspired! Obama's response to Clinton's Ad "I just want to take a moment to respond to an ad that Senator Clinton is apparently running today that asks, 'Who do you want answering the phone in the White House when it’s 3am and something has happened in the world?' "We’ve seen these ads before. They’re the kind that play on peoples’ fears to scare up votes. "Well it won’t work this time. Because the question is not about picking up the phone. The question is – what kind of judgment will you make when you answer? We’ve had a red phone moment. It was the decision to invade Iraq. And Senator Clinton gave the wrong answer. George Bush gave the wrong answer. John McCain gave the wrong answer. "But I stood up and said that a war in Iraq would cost us thousands of lives and billions of dollars. I said that it would distract us from the real threat we face – and that we should take the fight to al Qaeda in Afghanistan. That’s the judgment I made on the most important foreign policy decision of our generation, and that’s the kind of judgment I’ll show when I answer that phone in the White House as President of the United States – the judgment to keep us safe, to go after our real enemies, and to provide the men and women who wear the uniform of the United States with the equipment they need when we do send them into battle, and the respect and care they have earned when they come home. And I’ll never see the threat of terrorism as a way to scare up votes, because it’s a threat that should rally this country around our common enemies. That’s the judgment we need at 3am. And that’s the judgment that I am running for President to provide."
