Hillary Clinton Used In GOP Attack Ad Against Obama

Hillary Clinton has made her way into a Republican Party attack ad, her words condemning Barack Obama taken entirely out of context to suggest that she was somehow criticizing his energy plan.

The Ohio GOP has a new web ad out, a minute and a half in length, that regurgitates the argument that the Illinois Democrat has no policy prescription for gas prices other than encouraging voters to inflate their tires. The only thing notable about the spot (which touts such specific John McCain proposals as "address climate change" and "promote energy efficiency") is that it pits the former first lady against the primary opponent she now endorses.

"Shame on you, Barack Obama," Clinton is shown saying -- a now famous clip from when she ripped the Illinois Democrat for sending out attack mailers on her position on NAFTA and health care. The Buckeye state's popular governor, Ted Strickland nods his head in the background.

I digress...I did't read the full article. Guess I'm not a hillary fan

Yet another ad I can't believe from McSame. Wooo...you really are loosing your barings McSame.

Not this year. I simply can not afford to buy into it {your negitive campaign} this year, prices are too high and I just don't have the money.

Try again.

For all of those remaining PUMA's - this is the MAIN reason Hillary could not be Barack's VP - the GOP were salivating at the chance to use her words against Barack - the I have experience and McCain have experience and he has a speech - the Shame on you Barack - the ads of all her infamous words were and are going to haunt the Democratic ticket until Election day. The last thing we needed was her spending the entire remaining election season trying to explain her many outburst and misspeaks.

Hillary did not represent women nor the Democractic party well - it was all about her. It will take many years for the general populace to forget what Hillary did - it will take many more to elect a woman.

SHOCKER!! Obama suporters were saying this months ago. To this day the hill-bily's are still using roves playbook plotting behind the scences with lawyers.

Is this a hint that she will be McCain's running mate?

[olivia]

What does Hillary have to say about this ad?

[nellie]

I don't know. Why should die hard Republicans be persuaded by something said by Hill? This approach doesn't really make sense to me.

McCain's camp needs to deflate their tongues! And while they are at it, zip their lips of divisive tactics. If they can't come up with any true political jabs on thier own, at lest they should not distort Hillary's jabs.

[mawrm]

Of course the Repubs use a photo angle on Barack Obama to make him look like the arrogant black man. These people are truly sick in the head.

Hillary was the one to get the nomination, plus she would have won, the left, the center, and yes some conservatives. That is why not having her as the nomination was a dumb move, and McCain now has Obama against the ropes..Someday the democrat party will learn that Centrist win, not leftists. That is why Bill Clinton won last time...and yes Jimmy Carter(though he was a disaster)

Another waste of money by the McCain camp. Who are the people giving their money to pay for this trash? They should all demand their contributions back, including the oil companies. What a waste.

[olivia]

These ads are so horrible - a dumber one every day! Who on earth is advising him?

[nellie]

I imagine the brainstorming sessions that come up with these ads as a pack of hyenas around a table, tearing at raw meat and giggling through snarling teeth. No offense to hyenas.

Hey, maybe Hillary should have thought about that when she went way over the line in attacking Obama. Did she not see this coming? Because I did. I think we all did. She isn't stupid, she knew this would happen, this isn't the first time and it certainly isn't the last. Truth is, she knew and didn't care, because it was all about her, not about what was best for the Party, of the country, or anyone else. Her her her.

Thanks Hillary.

I lost my respect for Hillary after she continued to expand her lies about bullets fling over her head in her so called dangerous trip to Bosnia. No one ever forgets bullets fling over there head . She repeating this several times and each time adding more drama to her trip. Fot those that want to think that she was forgetful you are making a big mistake. Yes Hillary is brillant but that really does not matter the true Hillary came out and she Obama was overly respectful to make an excuse for her. If Mc Cain said this Obama and his campaign would of been all over him. Pres.Clinton will try to destroy Obama and his wife will do the same hoping he has NO chance of winning. They will let this country be destroyed for there own selfish goals. I am a Republican voting for Obama and the Democractic party because we are in dangerous times and the Republicans care little ablut humanity.

People say voting for McCain would be a third term Bush presidency......Obama has changed his policies and flip-flopped so much that his views are the same as McCain's!

[olivia]

McCain has that photo where he is bear-hugging Bush.

Hillary has this moment.

Technology bites.
