The Hillary Clinton campaign has a new attack ad designed to scare the hell out of anyone considering voting for Barack Obama.
(You can view related videos below)
"It's 3 am and your children are safely asleep, but there’s a phone in the White House that’s ringing. Soemthing’s happening in the world. Your vote will decide who answers that call. Who do you want answering the phone?"
We see that Hillary is still in her pants suit and "I'm burning the midnight oil" reading glasses at her desk at three in the morning to take the call. God knows where Obama would be.
The message is clear: Vote for Obama and the terrorists win.
Obama responded in a speech today.
"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."
The same theme was echoed in an Obama campaign ad responding to the Clinton 3 a.m. phone call spot.
If this sounds familiar, you have a good memory. Walter Mondale used a similar ad against Gary Hart in 1984.
Forget hope. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
A few days ago Clinton criticized Obama mimicking Karl Rove, the man George W. Bush called the architect of his winning election campaigns.
“Enough with the speeches and the big rallies and then using tactics that are right out of Karl Rove's playbook. This is wrong and every Democrat should be outraged."
Who’s using tactics from the Rove playbook now?
