1. That is very scary.
It will appeal to people who are security-minded.

2. Wow.
That's really scary because Barack Obama has no solutions for these problems.

...Not!

7. And we were having a nice night and everything.
You have to go and spoil it with a get Obama dig.

Seriously neither Hillary or Obama will fix the economy. Their policies can help or hurt, but the
economy is a lot bigger than the president.

The President does get credit or blame when it goes bad, even though it really is not their responsibility.

right now that is good because we have Bush to blame. LOL

9. I'm new here...
So I guess I don't know yet how to display sarcasm correctly. That post ought to have been taken as sarcastic.

10. Sorry, I missed your sarcasm.
Welcome to DU.

I did not see your "...Not" added at the end.

As you have noticed this place can go a little crazy.

I was being playful in my response to you as well.
Did you check my link to a silly post I had put up earlier?

Anyway if you want to be sure that everybody understands your sarcasm
you can use the little thingy in the Smiles lookup table.

This one:
:sarcasm:

Glad you are here.

4. "The person you can depend on to fix the economy." I thought the ad was a response...
to the economy in freefall.

6. no its the tactics
while watching someone in freefall your heart starts racing, adrenalin is pumping, your getting scared. it starts talking about the economy, well of course the economy is bad, is that why my hearts pumping? OMG what am I gonna do about the economy. The "whoosh" Hillary/parachute is gonna save me, sigh good thing im gonna vote for hillary otherwise I wont have a parachute.

It's fear mongering, in a different way but still its the old vote for me because you are afraid and only I can save you.

8. Disappointing
All the time I was thinking - when is this guy going to open his parachute?

I was expecting the parachute to have HILLARY 2008 written on it in huge letters!

Not the most convincing ad. I prefer some of Hillary's other ads.
