This isn't the ad that won a recent MoveOn.org Political Action contest, as determined by a panel that included Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, John Legend and Naomi Wolf.
The winner, which the progressive group will air in presidential battleground states, features a veteran and lifelong Republican talking about why he's voting for Barack Obama.
But the panel did see fit to name this piece -- suggesting that Obama fever is passed on by, well, human contact -- the funniest entry.

And of course nobody realizes how vacuous it is to fall in love with a WORD that's not backed up with ACTION.
Obama rolled over for:
1. The war
2. Nuclear Power
3. Nucler Power polluters
4. GUN CONTROL (HOWZAT WORKIN' OUT SOUTHSIDE?)
5. Rezko slumlord 140 million dollars worth of functionless public housing in the guy's own district!
6. 'Clean' coal
7. He's so STUPID he even voted down child medical funding when he was in the state legislature.

"CHERTOFF SPEAKS"
BY REMOVING, OBAMA, IN CONSULTATION WITH AMERICA, AND BY INSERTING, SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, A BALANCE BUDGET. FAIR TAX REFORM FOR THE RICHEST OF THE RICH.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, MORE REGULATION AND LESS "CONGRESSIONAL CHURN" WHEN IT COMES TO "OVERSIGHT"
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, NO "IMMUNITY, PROTECTION LIABILITY" BUT MORE CONSTITUTIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, I CAN'T HAVE MY 11.4 MILLION "Z" PEOPLE.
BY REMOVING, THE BLACK VOTE, THE HISPANIC VOTE, THE WHITE VOTE, THE ASIAN VOTE, THE NATIVE AMERICAN VOTE, IN CONSULTATION WITH THE 2008 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, AND BY INSERTING "SUPREME COURT"
NOT A CHANCE AMERICAN VOTERS! NOT A CHANCE!

Swamp reporters, exhausted from their publicizing every Obama ad ever dreamed of, now stoop to publicizing moveon.org Obama ads that WON'T be run.
The Swamp's campaign coverage, or more accurately, their year-long fawning over Obama, should win the award for funniest campaign ad.

I have hope too. The only people who think hope is a bad quality are the ones who have benefitted from the status quo and do not want to see anyone else obtain a fraction of what they have or the uneducated easilly led sheep who can be race baited into supporting a proven liar and theif.
