.

Even I didn’t know some of the stuff in there.

I noticed that Sununu and Dole were the co-sponsors of the reform bill with McCain. I hope they are using that in their Senate races.

That video makes the case so plainly that anyone who hasn’t studied this issue should be able to follow it directly from A to B to C.

I like the TMR hit in there too. Good plug for some Red Staters

This is a million times more powerful than attacking Obama based on what church he went to.

This reminds me of how Reagan went after Democrats – not calling them evil or unpatriotic, just wrong.

I don’t know how anyone could watch that and still believe in Government programs.

I had this posted the other day in a diary and the video link was pulled to the original one.

I could not find the new one, which I hope goes viral!

…all McCain needs to do is send one copy to every home in America… election would be his. This issue is what people care about and people are fed up with Government cuddling with Wall Street. I can’t wait to see what Republicans do with in two years.

And send it to every person on your Email list, I have and if we all do it will go viral

This should be slowed down a little and shown right before each of the remaining three debates. It would be well worth the expense.

I missed the version with the Talking Heads music…darn, that’d been cool to see!

It was very concise and factual…its’ brevity is its’ beauty – thanks for keeping it alive!

I’m frantically emailing/IMing it to every single person I know. I just hope they get it before the powers that be at youtube take it down again. This is a powerhouse, and McCain ought to seriously consider buying adtime to show it regularly from here til the election.

Next time try using a video with any music by prince in it, watch it get yanked down so fast your head will spin.

As far as that video(the Hitler youth) – If you think the kids should not be used as political tools – such as what could be perceived to be done with that “Obama” yes we can song; then I wouldn’t juxtapose their song with the Hitler Youth.

I think both are silly; and meant to appeal to emotion rather then intellect.

Then to comment at the OP; Youtube pulls stuff down for a whiff of copyright infringement. It’s their business. Maybe Time Warner was politically motivated;

I am at least relieved however that Time Warner is not in the center of the Mortgage Meltdown; such as so many of the companies in John McCain’s top 10 PAC donor list.

I’d say that “hate Americans” would be a bit rough with the previous comment; but I think you equate any current candidate / candidates supporters to hitler who hasn’t started or enacted policies to round people up, keep them in camps, and execute them; then I think you’re desperate for attention. Yeah I know, “Connect the dots culthero, first it’s the … black dude .. then he becomes president … then young people … do his … bidding .. then they … kill jews… ” Fact of the matter is the only good points in any of the videos aforementioned was that the Clinton Administration opened the door for Sub prime loans post NASDAQ bubble; and as much as the Republicans like to point out – Barack and the Clinton’s aren’t so much of the best of buddies.

Why doesnt Mccain go all in with this? He draws the best hand and keeps folding on a bluff. The next debate Mccain has to call out Obama’s involvement with the mortgage crisis

until his ad libs at the end. Lose the Battle Hymn of the Republic music with McCain, and the begging, the video speaks for itself imo.

Ok; to be more “couthy”; the initial video points out negative things about Obama, but in-directly it points out the fact that McCain and any politician that has any serious bankroll (aka, has a shot at the big house). PACs’ from large corporations unfortunately play a HUGE role in fund raising for any major political candidate. Again, I’ll re-iterate; the only seriously damning connection I think that video makes is that the Clinton’s opened up the door for the subprime lending spree. However

Fannie and Freddie’s market share went down during the housing bubble because rising home values pushed more homes beyond eligibility requirements for CRA loans.

50% of subprime loans were made by companies who didn’t rely on Fannie or Freddie, outside the requirements of the CRA which required a higher level of creditworthiness, and they charged twice the interest of their CRA-bound counterparts. Another third of those loans fell under weaker CRA requirements enacted for small- to midsize banks by President Bush in 2005, when the bubble really took off.

Non-subprime loans are in trouble too because people lied about their income and banks weren’t verifying.

The problem was Government Regulations didn’t keep up; blame it on whoever you want.

If John McCain really had that ace in the hole in 2005- that is something that’s akin to Obama saying “I had the forsight to Oppose the Iraq war”, I would sure as hell hope he’d start playing it. I haven’t seen it but I look forward to it. McCain has stumbled several times in regards to the Economy; and most of it is coming out of his mouth. (Economy is strong, economy is in trouble, I’m suspending my campaign). Whether or not you agree they are gaffes the poll numbers seem to be reflecting that people believe the Dems are going to be better positioned to handle the economic crisis.

If you guys have the facts in your corner, pound the media with the facts they can’t refute; connect the dots for em;

Secretly I think the McCain warning of housing collapses in 2005 seems to be something his campaign wants to steer away from; for whatever reason or another. (otherwise this would be a campaign ad to responding to BO’s 2 minute economic ad)

After lurking here for almost a year, seeing this video actually prompted me to register just to say how incredibly awesome that video was.

I’ve sent the link to friends and family, and posted it on myspace (where I’m sure my liberal friend working for the Obama campaign in K.C. will see it and be absolutely infuriated).

I can only wish that the McCain campaign would get a hold of this, hone it down to about 2 minutes, professionalize it, and run that sucker the rest of the election. But as it stands, I’ll be happy just to see it go viral. Granted, it does move a bit quick and it is a little cheesy at the end, but the message is received loud and clear. Now if only McCain would lay it out like that at the next debate.

I enjoyed the video a lot, but I really wish there was a referenced (linked up), text version of it. Where each of those little screen-shots was a link, and was just a basic write-up of what the video said.

I think the video runs a bit long, but I don’t see a great way to cut off more than a couple of minutes.
