Our colleagues at the L.A. Times's "Top of the Ticket blog" brought to our attention a YouTube video that has gotten more than two million views in a little over a week.
It's called "I'm Voting Republican" and essentially caricatures GOP voters in ways many Democrats will get a laugh from and that will incense many Republicans.
We await the Republican response video.







Comments
The Repubs will come up with one, but I'm sure every person 'interviewed' will mention Bill Clinton. Bets anyone?

The Republicans have brought this caricaturing on themselves. They have demonized the word " liberal " to the point of laughability. The liberal is no more, nor less patriotic than conservatives, who have lied upon lie, to discredit a refreshing point of view, concerning governing !! They have destroyed Vietnam Vets careers, some even wheel-chair bound, and U.S. Senators. I didn't hear any cries of cease and desist, when these lies were circulating, circulated by conservatives and allies of the Republican Party. They didn't have the courage or the principles to publicly condemn and expose those that were responsible for the outrageous lies!! The rest is history, President Bush in our White House and the Republicans in the majority in both Houses, achieved primarily by lies !! So, please, you conservatives and Republicans, quit the whining, when you are caste in a light, though accurate, may not so complimentary !!
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME, ALIVE AND WHOLE. NOW.

There's plenty of anti-left videos out there. It's just that the Democrats at the Swamp won't show them. A sample:
Here's an Obama Ad parody:

Here's "Hillary Man":

Here's one on Hillary dodging the Bosnian snipers:

Here's one, on "learning to speak Democrat": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EcQ03qRE1s&eurl=http://www.redstate.com/
Inspired by the comment of Obama's foreign policy adviser that his foreign policy guide is Winnie-the-Pooh, here's a photo guide: http://michellemalkin.com/2008/06/19/the-obamapooh-photoshop-collection/
These videos are out there. For everyone to see. Even Tribune reporters. And we sensible people laugh at Obama and Clinton every day.

And every single one lacks any humor, imgaination, wit or sense of irony. It is like when faux news tried to upstage Jon Stewart. They launched the worst "comedy" since whenever (and it died the just death it deserved). It just goes to show you that conservcrites have absolutely no imagination or original ideas what so ever. All they can do is grab an existing idea and pummel it to death until it doesn't sell anymore, at which point they point their finger at the messenger and say "He did it first", like a sixth grader.

RNC Bruce,
Doesn't it just frost your shorts that the American people have seen through your fear and smear?

Actually, the funniest thing in this campaign is the Swamp itself, with Obama surrogates basking in the applause of the same half-dozen borderline illiterates who spell imagination "imgaination" while they challenge the wit of others!
The extreme left is not so much to be refuted as to be laughed at.
