Sebelius for VP, not Hillary · #1 (**permalink**) 02-09-2008, 01:51 AM

I happened to be browsing YouTube and I noticed one attack ad, so I thought, hey why not show the most infamous political attack ads.

Lyndon Johnson's Daisy Girl (1964)

Jesse Helms "Hands"

Willie Horton Attack Ad (1988)

Race baiting on Harold Ford Ad (2006)

Hillary 1984 Attack Ad

I don't know if that Hillary one has been edited or not. I don't remember the Obama stuff in the original.

There's plenty more out there too.

I like this one by McCain on Romney. It shows how there is practically no issue that Romney has not flip-flopped on.

Yeah, I like this attack ad on Romney too:

Another good one on Mitt:

Let's also get in the Larry Sinclair gay sex YouTube attack.

Sinclair later took a lie detector test and failed it on two different counts. He was also found to have a brain tumor and a criminal history of drug and illegal immigrant trafficking.

An Obama supporter made a funny reprisal:

Laughable campaign attack ads:

I like the Clinton one that uses footage from a car commercial.

That Willie Horton ad won the election for George 1. It was one of the most disgusting and creepy campaigns I've ever witnessed.

That's one election I would like to have back.

By the way, the "think different" anti-Hillary ad did have the Obama stuff in it. That was part of the whole controversy back when it came out because they were accusing Obama of being involved with it and it turned out that the guy who made it did so in his home but was an employee of a company that Obama hired to do some website work.
