Obama And Clinton Both Play Up Illinois Roots In New Indiana Ads
Barack Obama has a new ad up in Indiana, in which the candidate talks about his knowledge of problems throughout Indiana, making sure to mention that he's from right next door in Illinois:
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton has this ad in Indiana about her own Midwestern roots:

OK folks, let's just get used to the fact that anywhere Hillary has squatted to pee is her hometown. Christ, its like a dog marking its territory or something.

Too bad she lost her actual home state, Illinois, in a massive blowout to Obama.

Meanwhile Obama's image as a man who can unite the races continues to melt down.

You're obviously not watching what's really happening.

It's a more difficult task than claiming to be from everywhere all at once.

A couple weeks ago, somebody posted something about Hillary having lived in Indiana for about two weeks, as a sort of "mark my words, she's going to claim to be a native." I dared to laugh then.

This all reminds me of the Daily Show skit during the 2004 Democratic Convention when Stephen Colbert was bragging about his roots. He had a tough life growing up in the Turd Belt. His father was a turd miner and his grandfather was a goat ball licker. Now that's some roots!

In the media and the heads of Clinton supporters.
And Hillary's image of do anything say anything continues to grow... Even my 4 yr. old grandson, making a comparison of characters from the Cars Movie told us that Obama is like Lightning McQuine [because he tries to help people]; Hillary is like Chick [because she will do anything to win] and McCain is like The King [because he is an old guy].

Not by the numbers she expected it too going in.

How many "home states" can one person have? Every damn state she goes to she tries to stretch out some kind of "I'm from here!" advantage.
