I’m not sure what Hillary Clinton’s obsession with movies and popular culture is. I can respect it, because in a way it makes her more accessible. At the same time, it seems like a weird way to run a presidential campaign.
For those who haven’t been keeping up with our would-be presidential candidate’s campaign, early on Clinton used a spoof of The Sopranos finale, putting her and Former President Bill in a diner booth. It was quaint and timely, but few people got what she was saying beyond the parody. Since then, Clinton has continued to hold on to pop culture, including an appearance on The Daily Show this week.
The latest ad supporting Hillary’s campaign features a montage of Jack Nicholson clips. To be fair, the ad doesn’t come from Clinton’s camp, but instead is to show Nicholson’s support of the Democratic candidate. After the collection of clips from movies ranging from Batman to Five Easy Pieces, today’s Jack shows up to mention this ad has his approval. Probably would have been better to just throw that approval on through audio or text, however, because all I was left with by the end of the commercial was the thought of how old Nicholson is now.
The advertisement is online through YouTube. Take a look below:

A Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama ticket is what we want. And that is what we need to take back the Whitehouse. We want a smart, tough, idealistic, seasoned veteran of many battles fighting for the American people (Hillary Clinton). With a young, passionate, smart, open-minded, hard-working idealist fighting for the American people (Barrack Obama). The DREAM TEAM!
You are both fabulous candidates. And we, the American people are very fortunate to have each of you. Taking back the Whitehouse is critical for the American people, and the world at this time. And I think the American people have been saying loudly, and clearly that a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket is the best way to do this.
I think the American people have made it very clear that they feel Hillary Clinton is the one best able to lead the ticket against John McCain at this critical, and desperate time in America, and around the world. These dramatic comebacks are testament to Hillary Clinton's skill, and experience as a fighter for the American people. They are also a testament to the strong desire of the American people to have both of you fighting for the American people at this time of midnight in America.
Typical of the Clinton's is an uncanny ability to see and understand what the American people want. And then to try and get it for them. Even if they have to go through three political near death experiences to try and get it for the American people. This is classic Clinton's. They are the best I have ever seen.
We are desperate out here. Millions of us are suffering greatly. And tens of thousands of us are dying needlessly every year. Men, women, children, and babies. We need help! As Hillary Clinton said "It's not a game". We need the two of you together on our side fighting for us, and for the American dream for all. Not fighting against each other anymore.
It's time for you Senator Obama to join forces with Hillary Clinton as her running mate so that we can all focus our energies, and resources on taking back America for the American people.
