Even Rudy Giuliani’s “YouTube-Style” Video Is About Tall Buildings Being Terrorized


Still clearing out a number of videos I have wanted to post about. This one is Rudy Giuliani’s “YouTube-style” clip from the GOP’s CNN/YouTube Debate.

It’s got a nice mix of humor, information and attacks on Hillary Clinton. If I were a Republican, I’m guessing that’d be a web video trifecta.

But did anyone else notice that even his “YouTube-style” clip managed to include skyscrapers in peril? Joe Biden was right.

Five Candidate Pile-Up: Hillary Clinton’s “Politics of Pile On” Video

Following up on last nights Democratic debate in Philadelphia, Senator Hillary Clinton’s campaign released this video where a bunch of mean male Senators gang up on her. Not included in the video: the portion of the debate where the near-perfectly disciplined Clinton got banged around a little on the issue of drivers licenses for undocumented workers.

UPDATE: Hillary didn’t have her drivers license answer in that clip, but – staying mean – the Edwards campaign put it out there:

Even Joe Biden had a montage

So…

It’s a montage of preparations for the Harkin Steak-Fry from the Biden campaign. No big deal – Right?

Wrong.

Listen to that song. Recognize it? It’s “Montage” from Team America: World Police. The wonderment of puppetry where marionette action heroes battle Kim Jung Il over…something.

For those who didn’t see Parker and Stone’s masterpiece – or need a memory-refresher – here’s the original song number:

Lyrics are after the jump… (more…)

Biden on a Roll – YouTube Response Videos

A moment ago, I posted a nice clip from the Biden campaign on the importance of the Iowa Caucuses that defies their M.O. of posting clips from news shows and debate performances.

Now, they follow up with a quartet of video responses through YouTube.

I’ve pulled them into the playlist below. I would have like to put the original YouTuber’s videos in here, but the campaign has not yet attached these clips as “video responses” to the questions they respond to. From the looks of things, they may all be directed at folks who issued typed – rather than taped – comments.

Biden Iowa Video

No one can say that Senator Joe Biden’s campaign has failed to be prolific in their posting to YouTube. Hitting the 100 videos mark on their YouTube account today, the Biden campaign has relied far too much – for my liking – on television news and debate clips.

There is certainly room for clips like these (Republican consultant David All suggests a whole YouTube channel for them), but (without actually counting) they look to be the majority of what the Biden campaign has posted.

Today, the Biden campaign breaks away from that trend with a nice piece on the increased importance of the Iowa caucuses in the new front-loaded Democratic Primary calendar.
