I don't think there's much to this. Even Hillary wouldn't stoop this low. Would she?

    All you need now is to give him some Soup Cooler lips and he's a loser for sure.

    I don't know if there is really much to that, if it's a different camera we could talk about poor white balancing, worse color etc....


    Besides, Hillary already looks more menacing... in the best light. This is the NY post after all.

    I agree. If you look at the picture from the Clinton ad, his tie is darker too. It actually caught my attention at the store today because it was on the front page of the NY Post newspaper.

    Obama is BLACK????? Gasp! Wow. It would really hurt his chances at the presidency if that gets out.

    You guys can't be serious. And you can't honestly imply Clinton is anti-African American if you know the first thing about her. Basically, her whole career has been about securing civil rights for African Americans. What did she do with her time at Wellesley? Personally campaigned tirelessly for more Black professors and more Black students to be admitted. And succeeded. Who were her highest ranking aides in the WH when she was first lady? African-Americans. Who does she name as one of the women she most respects in life? Marian Wright Edelman, a Black woman. What was the single most defining point in her life? Seeing how Black poor people lived in the 1960s in Illinois and wanting to change that. Many of her closest friends are African-American. Not like the line, but like...they just really are.

    You honestly think that the blacker a candidate is in this day and age equates with receiving fewer votes? That's ridiculous...Obama has swept most states. In case you haven't noticed, he's a lot Blacker than Hillary and it's not hurting him one bit anywhere. Most people don't care what color he is, and among those that do care what color he is--it's a very positive thing. So, I think there's a little something wacky with the theory that Hillary is playing at racism in an ad. Who would she appeal to in this day in age in the Democratic party? One demented KKK member living in Taos county? That'll do her a lot of good. Why would she spend big money on something that would deliberately infuriate people she relies on and cause them to turn on her? There is no angle from which she could benefit by portraying Obama as Black/er. Not one. She may not be Einstein, but she's not GWB, either.

    If the paparazzi get a shot of him behind closed doors @ home you never know..

    maybe they'll get lucky if he forgets and leaves the curtains open....
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.
