Jack & Jill Politics

JJP reader Brandon sent in this hilarious and pointed video about Geraldine Ferraro and the sophisticated Clinton campaign strategy to attack Obama on race. The satirical video has “Clinton campaign workers” defending themselves and explaining their strategy. It’s funnier and better done than anything you’ll see on SNL. They nail it.

It seems like such a desperate, short-sighted strategy on the part of the Clintons because they risk digging a hole that can’t be filled again. They risk alienating voters who won’t come back to support them. They risk our forming memories. They risk creating a sore so festering that it won’t heal. They are risking one of the lowest black turnouts (if she’s the nominee) in recent history. We ain’t dumb and we can hear a dog whistle from a long ways off. God, what a disappointment they’ve become.
