Love it.  Funny, and looks like a joke until you see it is the campaign playing a little joke on itself.

I'm going to have to get my daughter's opinion on this one.

I am clearly too old. Because this didn't make any sense to me.

It's a spoof on all the VH1 "story of the band" profiles.

I really love that ad.

I already support her, so take my comments with a pile of salt or whatever, but as an 18-year-old I have to say that this ad really grabbed me. I think if I were an undecided (or leaning for someone else) and saw that I'd have another look at her.

Where's it running?

Re: Dude, Hillary Just Quit the Band (none / 0)

Most clever thing her campaign has done. Its interesting to me that for a top-down, paranoid-message-control campaign, they've done some interesting things in new media by avoiding the latest technology or the most precise narrow-casting delivery and focusing on just blunt message.  Hillaryis44.com is the ugliest website Ive seen and it makes no effort to involve users but its pure, blunt message. This is the same thing.

For all its intense effort over 3+ years to use vblogs, develop an online network, cultivate the blogs, use web video, and fundraise on line, Edwards never quite got the competitive edge in this area.

man, i remember when she used to hang with keith richards.  of course, he could still keep up with her back in the old days.

Re: Dude, Hillary Just Quit the Band (none / 0)

Loved this ad.  I used to play the guitar back in the day (late 70s, early 80s.)  We even had a band put together and practiced heavy metal tunes of that time (now known as "Classic Rock") every day in a friend's basement.  Never performed the stuff live though, and in retrospect it was quite awful.  But, I can relate to this quite a bit.  Hillary, the shredder.  Awesome.
