Right On The Right

Remember the Hillary Big Brother ad? It was an ad for the Obama camp, and it's been a nutroots winner so far. I thought it was clever, and the Obama supporters made sure it got around. With millions of YouTube views, it's become one of the biggest internet ads of all time. Someone stood up and said they made the ad, and Patrick Ruffini is skeptical:

He’s referring to an early scene in the spot, where the drones are marching to Hillary video placed perfectly in a series of TV screens above. That shows a remarkable attention to detail in the production.

It also conflicts with ParkRidge47’s email to Micah Sifry, which clumsily claimed that the ad was a response to the David Geffen spat. Which happened on February 21st. And if so, that’s revealing, because it suggests “Vote Different” was in the works for two weeks or more. Chances are there’s more to de Vellis’ claim that it was done on his apartment on a Sunday afternoon.
