Hillary should know better than to think the "3AM" ad will work on Dems. We're used to RW scare

[jenmito]

tactics and are TIRED of them already. I'm glad Obama was quick to point out the obvious scare tactics of this ad and I'm SURE my fellow Dems. won't fall for such a low tactic.

[blm]

1. This is REALLY gonna piss Olbermann off. This tactic is his #1 PEEVE. This is what LOST Keith for

Hillary Clinton in the first place when she used this ploy a while back.

8. I agree. I think the first time she used the fear card was when he turned on her.

He was FOR her until that time (as you pointed out).

2. "Who do you want answering the phone?"

That question inspires visions of "The Office" not the Oval Office.

[jenmito]

10. True-did you see the ad? She has glasses on. Ooh-serious. Just like Bush.

:eyes:

4. What's the status of the claim that it was plagarized?

I saw earlier this morning a claim that it originate as a youtube piece for McCain.

Has that claim been vetted?

6. Looks like the media is not talking about it

remember, the msm likes to make believe to she can come back, when it's impossible!

[jenmito]

12. ONE guy mentioned it. I forget who now, but he said at first he thought they were talking about

the McCain ad before he saw it.

[jenmito]

11. There's a link to it on the DU here. It had the phone ringing and the same "3am" question was asked

[Reality Check]

5. Sorry, but your voice does not speak for your "fellow dems"!

[jenmito]

9. Sorry...I should've said my fellow SMART Dems.

:hi:

[TexasObserver]

7. That ad is a measure of her inability to understand voters.

Anyone who is moved by that ad is voting in the Republican primary.

[jenmito]

13. I agree...

just more tone deafness. And CNN is going to have WOLFSON on in a minute to defend it.

[TexasObserver]

15. I only watch Wolfson because he reminds me of The Daily Show spoofers

He's so funny when he says these ridiculous things!!

[jenmito]

16. True...

and do you notice his hair plugs?

[TexasObserver]

17. yeah ... he's going to need ear plugs when she loses

I can imagine the rants she goes on.

[jenmito]

18. I agree...

It ain't gonna be pretty! But now they changed their tune to say if OBAMA doesn't win ALL 4 STATES Tuesday, it shows the voters are having "buyers' remorse." At least he aknowledged we bought him. :D

[jenmito]

14. Howard Wolfson is now on CNN defending the ad, keeping the fear going!

Is he a Repub.? :shrug:

[Rageneau]

19. Politically, what has Hillary got to lose?

Okay, maybe most Democrats won't respond to this ad, but Hillary's problem is not with Democrats.

Most long-time Democrats have already made up their minds who they will support -- and the majority of them actually choose Hillary. The reason she trails is because of the heavy turnout of "new" voters -- "undecided" ones, consisting of independents and (probably) crossover Republicans.

It is them she must attract.

And since undecided voters have responded to fear-generating ads in the past, so what does she have to lose?

Her unblemished reputation?
