The Ads Obama Should Run Against McCain and Palin

These are two ads we put together at The Young Turks that we think Obama should run against McCain and Palin. So, we will be running them free of charge on our XM show, our web show and on our You Tube channel.

For the first ad we simply borrowed McCain's own ads and his own words. Arianna Huffington helped to make this one come about because she insisted that McCain didn't vote for Bush - then McCain had to go on O'Reilly and insist he did:

For this ad against Plain, we borrowed heavily from an already existing ad from Planned Parenthood, but we added a twist at the end:

Sarah Palin just doesn't get it, does she? She has probably never known what many American women have gone through. I don't care if her husband drives a snowmobile, and she hunts, that doesn't make her any more closer to my life than before, or more "American", it's a travisty what she is doing to other women. Also Sarah, us bigger cities have somethings little towns don't, and that's MORE VOTERS !!!

First time I've laughed out loud at CAPS ever! I find I need to laugh so much now. Thank you.

You hit the nail on the head for me with these two ads. Loved 'em

[Kadaniel]

Lets get these ads to the undecided..... they are terrific

[MamaJoe]

Yes, there is a place reserved in hell....in fact there are two places.

Really good and fact filled adds. Thank you.

Is it just me, or did McCain seem a bit, uh, orgasmic in his enthusiasm in his support of Bush? Creepy.

I went down to the local Democratic club and made phone calls to Nevada last night, asking people to vote for Obama. Maybe one out of 100 was supporting McCain. Everyone else was supporting Obama.

And I can’t help but notice the avalanche of publicly-known Republicans coming out to support Obama, along with editorial boards. And I guess about 95% of the rest of the world too.

He is our prince. Everyone hopes he will save us, help us climb out of this horrible place into which we have sunk. I guess next to this brief moment of elation, the biggest emotional time in our country will come a few months from now when people find out Obama actually burps, watches TV, is sometimes stupid just like the rest of us.

But for the moment, it feels like Camelot, and all our men are Lancelot and all our women are Guenevere, and we live in the most convenient spot for happy-ever­-after-ing­.

A local artist just made this video about Obama. It’s amazing. Must-watch. Turn up the music and wait for the very end. Then send it to everyone you know.

I love the Palin ad. The Obama Campaign should pick it up and run it.

[demfriend]

The "Young Turks" have done it grand! Thank you for these and I hope viral is where they go as they are both too important. I wish Obama had done the first one weeks ago and played it everywhere voters are fence sitting.

Oh, yes! Right on! Both of these ads need to be seen by every American. No liesa needed, Johnny boy, when the right stuff is before your face. Obama/Biden '08

Another suggestion: REAL Americans voting for Obama. Have Americans from all walks of life who don't fit into Palin's and the rest of the GOP's definiton of "real" say who they are and confirm they are voting for Obama. I live in a big city and make way more in one year than Joe the Plumber will ever make in his life time and I am voting for Obama. I am happy to be born in America and pay my taxes. I support the troops. I support the schools. I support Democracy. I want to see smart people in office who are not wasting the resources of my country. The "real America" comments need to be addressed. I am tired of having my patriotism questioned by people who put their own interests in front of America's. McCain makes a mockery of "Country First" and Palin just doesn't seem to know any better...

Awesome! These should both go viral. And to that end I'm emailing them out to everyone I know.

Excellent, fact-filled ads, Cenk. Thank you.

Being that HuffPost has the largest traffic (4.5 million visitors) of all online blogs, your ads are being widely watched and seen. They are reminders why Obama is absolutely right in saying voting for McCain is voting for 4 more years of the same failed policies - Bush's - and that McCain's snazzy "Senator Obama, I'm not Bush..." bit was nothing but a lie.

The second ad reminds women that Palin is very anti-women (like all of the GOP) and yes, there *is* a special place in hell for women who don't support women - especially the horrifically victimized in our society.

Let's hope there is a hot ring in Hell for 'ol Sarah.

These are great! Keep up the good work. Let's spread them around!!
