So the 18 year old girl who plays the 8 year old girl in the Clinton 3am adds is an Obama supporter...

Wow, this is very insightful news coverage.

The only fascinating part of the article is that the footage was for a completely different ad campaign and was purchased by the Clinton campaign for us in the 3am ad. Apparently, the actors had no idea they were going to appear in a campaign spot. How this has anything to do with the election, however, is beyond me.

Perhaps it gives us yet another glimpse of how well our country will be run under Senator Clinton ? Wink

I can see why, but I think the story you linked to me earlier today in chat is far more newsworthy and a much better reason why you shouldn't vote for Clinton:
