Clinton 1984 mashup?

Posted by Moonage on 19 Mar 2007 | Tagged as: 2008 Presidential Race

Here’s the "scandal":

So far, the Obama camp disclaims any knowledge of where this came from.  Now, given that all you’ve got to go on is whoever uploaded it, and that it boasts Obama’s web page.  I’m willing to take this for what it is.  Ambiguous at best.  Deceptive on someone’s part for sure.

However, it is pretty cleverly done.

I still prefer the original tho:

Now, mashups are like rappers.  You have to steal something someone else did in order to have anything to work with.  What everyone seems to be doing in this case is reminiscing about how brilliant the original ad was in 1984 and basically ignoring the content of this mashup. 

Which is exactly how it should be.
