[Cross-posted] Hillary Clinton has been upset over the anti-Obama comments made by one of her reps. So he’s gone from her campaign.
   There are two interpretations:
   • if you mess with Hillary over expressing your own free will, then the Patriot Act is going to look like a walk in the park;
   • Barack Obama is her choice for running-mate. So leave the man alone.
   And a Clinton–Obama ticket is going to be hard to beat in marketing terms because both candidates have had a huge MSM build-up.
   Who does the GOP have? Romney–Huckabee? Now that I say it, it sounds pretty good, but it also sounds like it belongs to an episode of Bewitched as a rival agency to McMahon & Tate. Damn, Obama is just an exotic surname in an age of internationalism. A marketer’s dream.
   Thompson and another yet-to-emerge Law & Order cast member? Somehow, I think we won’t see FDT in the vernacular with Fred polling so low in New Hampshire—except maybe as a typo when someone is trying to type FDR.
   Giuliani and someone that the Democrats will rip into? McCain and … um … well, heck, just McCain?
   We are talking a lot of lost ground in terms of publicity here for the Republican Party. It needs to wake up and stand united, and with someone very, very credible that will beat the Democrats on substance—then brand it all correctly. Posted by Jack Yan, 02:45  permalink
