I don’t get it. Honestly. Are American politicians so desperate these days, they’ve forgotten to be Americans? The latest fumble footed PR move involves the much talked about Clint Eastwood Chrysler commercail that aired at halftime during the Super Bowl.
Two minutes of Clint in true Dirty Harry form, cheerleading for the once American muscle car legend, and Mitt Romney comes unglued? WTF? Next reading tea leaves will be used instead of Neilson polls. This is bad form from the GOP.
.
Every newspaper with ink still left in their presses clunked out how Obama bailed out Chrysler, suggesting that $12.5 billion in bailout money just must have some straight out of the current President’s pocket or something. Rescuing America’s auto companies may be the only bailout funds well spent, when all truths end up being told. But Clint Eastwood as some lackey for Obama? GOD!
Clint and his hidden Democratic agenda. He planned early on to betray the GOP when the right time came.
No matter how this election goes, the American people are just not going to have the best of the best taking on the country’s troubles. Fact is, the GOP nor the Democrats could beat their way out of a fiscal or ideological paper bag. There’s just not any statistics to show anything else. Now it’s also clear that the GOP has buffalo chips for public relations brains. 81 year old Clint Eastwood, doing what amounts to a free bit (he’s donating his take to charity) to recall Detroit car maker magic, this is not in the least political. Do you know why?
Eastwood has been a staunch Republican since before Rawhide aired. Look that one up. Oh, you say he would switch for the money? Clint is worth more than Obama and all the other candidates combined. Probably more than the demons that stand behind em too. Okay, maybe not that rich, but.
Mitt Romney, Perry, especially Gingrich, seem be trying a new form of strategy during this campaign. Maybe they are secretly Obama spies? How else can anyone define what some may end up calling the GOP’s “Dieing to make a living campaign strategy.” BTW, Clint has already denied any such subliminal political support – the commercial is a car commercial.
It’s true, Obama has been listless compared to what most people expectations before his election might have suggested. However, he has not so far resorted to delusions of Super Bowl, super secret conspiracies – unless one of the GOP candidates starts dating Madonna soon, the Democrats are stuck with America’s biggest football extravaganza being just the last bastion most of us have to cling to. Clint, I hope you read this, Obama supporter or not – your heart has always been in the right place.
If you play this video at half speed backwards, you can detect the tell tale signs Eastwood is really rooting for Obama – he utters advice to the current president; “Win Mr. President, Every Which Way You Can.” LOL.
