Actress From Clinton’s 3 A.M. Ad Strikes Back, This Time on Obama’s Side
A Washington state teen who weeks ago objected to a controversial Hillary Clinton ad that used stock footage of her from when she was a child has come back with an ad of her own. And this time she’s on Barack Obama’s side.
Casey Knowles, who was one of the sleeping children shown in the Clinton ad that asked voters who they wanted answering the phone at 3 a.m. in a crisis, apparently is an ardent Obama backer.
Now her new YouTube ad, posted on Obama’s Web site, urges voters to “reject the politics of fear that Sen. Clinton uses to drum up votes” and support the Illinois senator. Clinton’s ad, which aired ahead of the Texas primary, was used to raise doubts about Obama’s experience and judgment and was widely credited with boosting her performance in the contest.
In the new ad, Knowles says she was supporting Obama before Clinton’s commercial aired and that she objected to the way it was produced.
Clinton “wanted to scare you into voting for her,” she said — by tinting the stock footage of her sleeping from eight years ago and adding a “scratchy voice.”
At the end of the ad, she says, “I’m Casey Knowles and I approve this message, and not the other one.”
Well done. I applaud you for your courage casey, this country needs more people like you. I hope more people recognize the politics of hope and division is a lame tactic. Thank you.
Well done Casey =)
Typical Clinton trying to say she’s more “capable” of making a 3am decision. If she is elected, lets hope her next 3am decision shows better judgement than the Iraq war vote she made.
I think her Clinton and Obama would both have the ‘centered’ judgement to make the right decision now, but i really dont like the way Clinton constantly pushes her “experience” over Obamas.
Being president is like having a baby… everyone can tell you the best way to raise a child.. but only you can make a parent out of yourself.
She will be old enough to vote in November. Furthermore, she was a precinct captain earlier this year in Washington state. No one has inspired young people like Obama has since Bobby Kennedy. Good for her!
FYI… she will be old enough to vote for the general election. I do think its wrong to use someone for such an ad and never inform them of the message…FEAR FEAR FEAR… look at all the ones from the Clintons Administrator that tried…..hmmmm…strange “accidents” or “suicides”
She still sounds like a little girl; how sad.
The Obama team should use this clip nationwide.
So is Obama that desperate about the facts that he out Casey out to do this? What is his real motive other than the fact that Hillary’s ad speaks the truth about Obama’s lack of experience.
Shame on You Obama. What next Your pastor and your wife in an ad together. Saying how much they hate America
Is this actress daft? Is there not a war on terror? Northern Ireland had a war but with the help and support of former pressident Clinton, and his wife Hilary Clinton, our war has now gone away!! So how can it be said it is only scare tactics??
I’m reminding of a couple of quotes, which I would love to be debated but I am sure they won’t get posted.

What a lame way to up someone’s popularity. She’s not even old enough to vote. This is just so lame. A lot of young people are supporting Obama because they’re still not paying for a lot of things on their own.
