Even the People in Hillary's Ads Don't Like Her

Hillary Clinton's "red phone" commercial helped propel her to big win in Ohio this week -- but one of the stars of the commercial is actually a huge Barack Obama supporter.



The first child featured in the ad -- which asks people who they want to answer the phone in the White House at 3:00 AM -- is actually Casey Knowles, an Obama volunteer in the state of Washington. The footage was shot eight years ago when she worked as a TV extra. Getty Images owns the footage and can do with it as it pleases.

Knowles, who turns 18 in April, told KING 5 in Seattle that she is for Barack all the way: "It's really sort of ironic that my image would be used to advocate for Hillary when I myself do not."

137. OH ... and for the guy that thinks negotiating is a bad thing... whats your idea? lets just go to war with Venezuela, North Korea, Cuba and every other country that we see as against our views? Ahhhh yes... perhaps we should call it a Jihad... oh no we're american we need to find another reason for fighting instead of negotiating.....

Obama's determination to negotiate our problems is a strong reason to vote for him, we've lost over 4000 of our men and women in Iraq for a war that should never have been waked, Afghanistan was the issue not Iraq end of story, WMD's my ass. The fact he is willing to negotiate and work with worldwide governments means we might actually start seeing respect for the US start increasing, dear god half the world thinks we're a bunch of idiots that are too full of our selves and think we can do whatever due to Bush's crap... Sitting down at a table and talking over issues sounds like a good move to gaining back some respect as a RESPONSIBLE WORLD POWER.

138. Obama is the only candidate, who seems to know, what he's doing. The "experienced" candidates of Clinton and McCain seem to have botched their "inevitable" candidacies so many ways, as to wonder, what they would do to this country, if they had the chance.

Let's vote someone in, who is actually doing what s/he says: Obama is the only one, managing his finances and campaigning with true leadership.

And remember: These states having their post-Super Tuesday elections only "count" because Obama cared enough to put organizations into those states a long time ago. Clinton considered them irrelevant.

139. Wait until McCain gets a hold of Obama. Grab your popcorn and pull up a seat, it’s going to be a real show!

Yes, Let's go negotiate with Iran. They only want to blow us off the face of the earth because we're infidels. They are working as hard as they can to get a nuclear weapon and the UN and all the countries of the world have no effect on them. As soon as they're able, they'll figure out a way to sneak a nuclear weapon over here and annihilate a few hundred thousand of us. Look back at history and see how far England got with negotiating with Hitler. He sat at the table with them all right, but the next month he invaded Poland, France and ultimately bombed England and would have invaded them if the U.S.had not entered the war. We were negotiating with Japan at the very moment that they attacked Pearl Harbor. That's about how far we will get with negotiating with any country that is determined to harm us. Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Negotiations are wonderful if the other side is trustworthy.

145. If Hilllllary gets to the White House (I hope not.. does not have my vote) the person on the other end of the phone will probably be.... Sandy Berger, her friend who probably was caught stuffing top secret papers into his socks and down his pants again. He was allowed to be in the top secret paper storage area via permission from the Clinton White House before and probably will be again... I wonder what he took before he was caught and how much he changed the Clinton White House history. A vote for Hillary, and he will be back..........

147. i think hillary makes a better person for president because she does have expierence over obama so far everytime i hear him talk it is not on issues that he believes it's about what others say or said if he got into office i think he would be just a democratic bush,and be told what he thought.
