Hillary And Obama Ads Hitting More Super Tuesday States

The nationalization of the Democratic primary race continues. Hillary Clinton has a new ad running in various February 5 states, depicting a soft-voice Hillary speaking directly to the viewer — in emotional tones somewhat reminiscent of "The Tears" — about how hard she will work to help people:

Meanwhile, Barack Obama has a new ad in the Super Tuesday state of North Dakota, a heavily Republican state that also happens to have an all-Democratic delegation to Congress. The ad features senior Sen. Kent Conrad, who endorsed Obama back in December:

After what Bill Clinton did -
trying to divide Americans by race baiting.

Just terrible,

Is that the kind of person you want to
hold up as an example for your children.

Bill Clinton should look in the mirror,
and wag his finger

Hillary should be ashamed of herself for
hiding behind his skirt.
And that skirt is soiled with sin.

four years of this mess -
Clinton scandals ad nauseum

I don't think so!!!!!

Vote for Mitt

Gee.....don't we have boyfriends/husbands or others who can handle the garbage chores. If the Hillary people are winning as we hear and have so much big Bill why are they so angry?
You just won Nevada by 325 votes (OH WOW), you got all these BIG endorsements, Hillary seems angry she can't shake Monicas hand. All you folks want me to get in line and suck you little nuts. I'd be happy to if you vote for Romney. WHY SO UPSET???? Because you see it coming.....You deep inside know it's about to happen.....you're about to get it.....about to get the FEb 5th awakeing...the big wakeup call.........it's about to taken away from you..........the big ASS KICKING IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN....I TOLD YOU.....I WARNED YOU....PART 1 FEB 5...PART 2....MARCH 5......YOU ARE CUSTER...WE ARE THE INDIANS.

Actually, it was the Obama campaign
who used race. The Clintons have a stellar record on promoting racial equality. Obama had to inflame the black population of SC to win, and he did. But at great expense. Very sad to smear the Clintons in such a hateful way.

You know the Barry Hussein Rezko Obama's supporters are scared when they accuse the Clintons of racism. Remember, don't be sad after Feb. 5, it's just an election. ;)

I want to see you do three things at once

Cry while race baiting and wagging your finger while Monica does her thing.

I want the Circus - I mean the Clintons
back in town, their just too much fun.
Why would we deprive ourselves the entertainment.

I LOVE it when the Husseiniacs use rightwing talking points.

What's sad is that the Hillbots are making a concerted effort to discourage folks from voting for or supporting Obama. Perhaps you should channel that energy into explaining why folks should support the Clintons instead.

OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN RULES

From TalkLeft via BalloonJuice

Here are some of the rules that Obama and progressives should look to enforce through to the General Election:

1. Rezko is a nonissue and bringing it up is a slimy personal attack on Obama. This one has the virtue of being true. Let’s get that enforceable against John McCain and the other Republicans.

2. Discussions of experience and youth are, at the least, vaguely racist, and a personal attack. When a candidate touts experience or points to Obama’s lack of it, they are expressly arguing for a return to the past as opposed to looking to the future. It means they are opposed to change. Indeed, it expressly means for Republicans that they want to continue the policies of the Bush Administration. For Republicans, this also has the virtue of largely being true. The GOP field is indeed basically arguing for a continuation of Bush policies in most areas – tax cuts permanent, continuatio of the Iraq Debacle, less government regulation, etc.

3. What Obama Meant. Any review of Obama statements or past votes is subject to an explanation by Obama of what he REALLY meant. Any criticism of Obama’s statements which do not take into account Obama’s clarifications and explanations of what he REALLY meant are unfair personal attacks and the attacker is a “liar” who will say and do anything to get elected.

4. Obama’s attacks are always fair and merited. Any suggestion otherwise is, at the least, vaguely racist.

Can we get these rules enforced in the Media in a General Election? Let’s hope so if Obama is the nominee.

As for those of us who have been trying to push Obama to be more of an explicit partisan Dem well we can give that up now. He does not even have to give that concern a second thought. Obama can not be criticized period now. We must operate on faith now.

Notice that Clinton puts on a little of her catch-in-the-throat, just-about-to-cry, "emotional" voice. Obviously trying to recapture some of that New Hampshire diner magic.

What a fake.

Anyone have a link to video of the supposed Obama snub to Hillary at the state of the union address?

I got through ten seconds of Hillary. Dear God ... she is going to get CRUSHED in the fall. "The first thing I do is think of how I can help people." Go away, lady. Please. Leave us in peace. I wouldn't believe her if she said the sun rose in the east. Leave it to our party to nominate this absolute stone-cold certain loser in a year when the Republican brand is as popular as jock itch. I hope all you Hillbots don't disappear the day after the November election. Come to the blogs and take your medicine. And then suffer with the rest of us as McCain presents Bush Term Three.

user-pic

Keith,

the Husseiniacs who spew hate on this site by the minute aren't trying to discourage people from voting for Hillary?

OK, here's my anwser

*Vote for Hillary because her health care plan is truly universal
*Vote for Hillary because she's been vetted. Barry would be shredded by the Republicans.
*Vote for Hillary because she has a deeper understanding
of international issues.
*Vote for Hillary because Obama is ethically challeneged
*Vote for Hillary she actually knows how to work across party lines.
*Vote for Hillary because the Obama campaign
used sickening racial politics.
*Vote for Hillary because she has the best advisor
in the world.

Everything Hussein does is perfect.If you suggest otherwise, you're racist. Brilliant strategy. Too bad it won't fly.....

I thought the Hillary campaign was out of money? That was the story being spun by Obama and Edwards up in NH...how is she affording all these media buys when there is obviously no one supporting her and that every democrat supports Obama and won't vote for her if she wins the nomination?

i'm so confused...reality is so detached from the hope-ites assertions.

user-pic

Look who is endorsing Obama!

Ted Kennedy, Tom Daschle, John Kerrey, Patrick Kennedy, Caroline Kennedy(who??)..., a bunch of LOSERS ( and Drukards)!!

Who is next? Al Gore, another LOSER. Barack Hussein Obama is going to join the this list too, soon I hope (Feb 5).

He is nothing but a fraud who is good at talking only. He hasn't proposed anything substantial till date and is whining like a spoiled baby about the Clintons.

horizonr -- I actually think it's pretty effective for her. She's clearly targeting women, and the voice evokes but doesn't mimic the NH incident. Sure, some are turned off, but I think they figure those voters wouldn't voted for her anyway.

On another note: did anyone else notice that the audio was really high-quality? And there were no people around her? Almost as if she stood up on an empty sound stage to record the ad. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Interesting how you always pick the most unflattering possible photo of Hillary on this site, while all the Obama photos are the best possible. If I wanted relentless misogyny and condescending propaganda, I'd go to a Republican site.

i really don't want to dislike the clinton's as much as i do. Two weeks ago, i thought they were just wrong for this time. SC made them repulsive for me.

I didn't think it could get any worse, but seeing that crying schtick again after the hard-nosed gambit they played just 4 days ago is pathetic. I didn't think it was fake in NH until today. I know...I'm naive.

its really just pathetic.

The words "pretty effective" and "the voice" don't really seem they should be in the same sentence.
That would indicate premeditation -
and for me personally that is really not very effective.
More like contrived to be honest.
If she hasn't found "her voice" yet - well.
It's the words I am interested in - not weather she can make her voice crack when delivering them.
Her voice is cracking because she feels her nomination slipping away to a certain degree. I would not necessarily believe the cracking voice is a result of her caring for people.

Yes, we have seen that movie before. Nobody wants any part of her plan.

*Vote for Hillary because she's been vetted. Barry would be shredded by the Republicans.

Yeah right. Wait until the Republican attack machine comes out. They will dig up 20 Monica's

*Vote for Hillary because she has a deeper understanding

Look where that got us..in war with Iraq
*Vote for Hillary because Obama is ethically challeneged
- You are desperate
*Vote for Hillary she actually knows how to work across party lines.

You are a dork. Typical Hillary supporter, no intelligence what so ever.

Obama is FOR drivers' licenses for illegal aliens.

Obama is FOR more trade agreements with Peru and other Central American countries.

Obama is FOR Kennedy's comprehensive immigration reform, which most of the public in red states considers amnesty.

Obama will be associated with the verrrry liberal Teddy Kennedy in those states, and not with JFK.

Not even the Reagan Democrats will come back to the party to vote for him, knowing his stance on those issues.

Bashing Hillary for anything and everything won't change that.

The trolls are thick today, on both sides. Can't wait until next week for some semblance of sanity. Although, the way things are looking, this thing could go the distance. I might have to stop reading if it's get much worse than this.

Who am I kidding, I'm hooked until November.

Don't take the bait. They're trying to quiet the voice of the people, or something.

Don't let the man keep us down Greg.


On a more serious note, I'm pretty certain the majority of the trolling is from one or two people. Shouldn't be to hard for you guys to track.

There are pro-Hillary robocalls in Florida. I got one.
