Hey, it works for me…

Charlton Heston as Moses

So John McCain does it again… Trying to discredit Barak Obama’s “cool factor”. Why is it that Mr. McCain can’t talk about what he’s gonna do. I used to like him, before he started to take advise from Bush’s cronies… Off shore drilling et al….

A week or so ago, I wrote an article called “Marketing Like a Rockstar!“. What I was talking about was how a good marketer (or sales person) not only makes promises to the audience, but includes them. Barack in this respect is masterful! He has been creating following with “groupie-like” zeal.

John McCain’s answer is to, like I said, try to discredit Barack - not try to improve the marketing of his message.

The following video is the McCain Camps newest. For me, it highlights why I like Barack. Curious to hear what you guys think.

Here is the script of the video:

“We are the ones we’ve been waiting for,” Obama says, in his Super Duper Tuesday speech in California.The narrator continues: “And he has anointed himself, ready to carry the burden of The One. To quote Barack, ‘I have become a symbol of America returning to our best traditions.’”

”He can do no wrong,” the narrator says.

Cut to an excerpt of CBS’s Lara Logan asking Obama, “Do you have any doubts?”

“Never,” Obama says, smiling.

“Can you see the light?” asks the narrator.

When they show Barack talking about returning to our best traditions, this was actually Obama telling House Democrats that the big crowds and enthusiastic receptions he received in Europe had less to do with him than they had to do with a desire for a new U.S. foreign policy. In a way, it was more a statement of humility than arrogance.

Go figure…
