Best Early Political Campaign 2008 Videos

Thu, 03 Jul 2008 10:57:32 EDT

I thought I should give a nod to part one of PoliticsTV's 2008 Web Video Odyssey, which began with George Allen's use of the "Macaca" slur. Since then, it's been great to see how the presidential campaigns have tried to keep up with the pace of new media, announcing their candidacies online . . . and sometimes making horrible (and funny) gaffes. The campaigns generated internet content like John Edwards combing his hair, gringos speaking Spanish, and Giuliani talking about abortions and in drag. (They improved with Mike Gravel's "Rock" commercial and Hillary Clinton's Sopranos spoof). It's been an exciting year, and we at BarelyPolitical can't wait for more to come!

Bill Clintons Secret Call to Barack Obama

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 11:53:59 EDT

In this exclusive, "leaked" footage from jimghenderson, we see what Barack Obama and Bill Clinton really talked about in their formerly secret phone call. Filled with references to Clinton's 1990s dalliances, slang, and tang, Clinton talks about such serious topics as vice-presidential candidates, Monica Lewinsky, and Obama Girl. Throughout the exchange, Obama cooly refuses to engage in crass "that's what she said" jokes or talk about hypothetical extra-marital affairs, saying instead, "I am in a monogamous heterosexual relationship"--oh so crush-worthy.

John McCain Debates Himself on Supporting Bush

Fri, 20 Jun 2008 14:54:00 EDT

Jedreport makes McCain look like a flip flopper in this mock debate. Is John McCain running for George Bush's fourth term? Watch him talk about himself here and decide, and then tell your friends to do the same. What John McCain said (big head) and what he says he said (small head) are remarkably different. There is definitely a creepy inner voice thing going on here, which suits the message well.
