Political post, what?!

Hillary Clinton's campaign team has released this advertisement, one of her first in her search for the Democratic nomination for president, in which she and Bill recreate the final Sopranos scene. This video is brilliance! It's an incredibly smart move on Hillary's part to show the public that she isn't the cold political fish that she has grown a reputation for being. There is no better way to appeal to the puiblic than with humor. The fact that Hillary knew this was a good idea speaks volumes for her. Besides, this video is hilarious! And I don't want to hear anyone say that the acting is bad and the video is cheesy... it's supposed to be! Good move, Clintons.

And then there's the interesting news that New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is ditching his Republican party and becoming Independent. This is the perfect get-your-act-together message, not only to the Republican party, but also the Democrats. It's pretty clear that this country is sick of stubborn party agendas, especially the damaging mudslinging that goes on between them. A powerhouse figure like Michael Bloomberg turning his back on the dual-party system is a political statement made in Heaven.

“Any successful elected executive knows that real results are more important than partisan battles, and that good ideas should take precedence over rigid adherence to any particular political ideology.”
