Snippet:

I guess it depends on how effective people think Hillary will be at getting a poll conducted at 3:00 am.

Come to think of it, she might know some people who could pull it off.

They'll tell her why she lost to Obama.

Man... I kept hoping it was going to be Jack Bauer.

Yeah, it is like she wants to make sure that I vote McCain.

This ad is certain to backfire for two reasons.

1. It reminds knee-jerk pacifist, revisionist historian liberals that Hillary answered the phone in 2003 and voted in the nation's National Security interests, which is a BAAAD thing to them.
2. It gives Obama an opening to paint Hillary as the new Karl Rove, which is far more insulting to a liberal than painting Obama as Osama Bin Laden.

So she pretty much just punted Texas.

It might not backfire. A lot of Republicans are expected to vote in the Democratic primary in Texas now that McCain has the Republican race sewn up, and they're expected to break heavily for Obama. This ad may be Hillary's argument to Texas Republicans why they should prefer her to Obama.

I don't see it backfiring at all, but then, I do support her over Obama.

We'll see. Since the ad aired, Hillary has lost four points in Rasmussen's poll and Obama now has a lead greater than the margin of error.

Maybe it wasn't the ad, but it sure doesn't seem to have helped.

I can tell you what the ad made me think, and it made me think that Hillary had stumbled again. Wrong message, wrong timing, wrong delivery, wrong target.

But just my opinion is all.

Commenting on Dean's World is a privilege, not a right. Dean is your host, you are his guest, and you should behave in that fashion. Dean is not your babysitter, nor is he your punching bag. Please remember this. In general, you are free to disagree with anyone on any subject you wish, but abusive behavior will not be tolerated.

Of course we all lose our tempers now and then. Dean freely admits to being imperfect in this regard, which is why regulars to this establishment will generally be cut more slack than people who we don't know very well.

Still: behave like an adult, or go find somewhere else to play. Thanks.
