This is the ad run by that 527 group of Democrats near the end of the primary against Howard Dean. Just saw this at You Tube. Someone put it up Thursday.

I posted the link to the C-Span video which is sort of an expose of what 527s are free to do...still are. This one was formed with the express purpose of "taking down" (in their own words) a fellow Democrat. They did not have to even reveal their identities.

4. It is in the link I posted.

The reason it came up this week is because of the Robert Gibbs who spoke out for Obama against the Clintons...it was pretty rough from both sides. I think Obama distanced himself. Gibbs was the spokesperson for the group, David Jones was the head of the group, and the others are mostly listed at the link with more in the comments.

So it is like many of the same players and consultants and advisors are obviously still around...and we don't really know who they are.

I find it hard to search for the folks behind campaigns.

5. So did Obama hire the guy behind this ad or not? n/t
