Video: Celebrities against Franken
Hot Air » Top Picks —
Video: Celebrities against Franken posted at 12:04 pm on October 28, 2008 by Allahpundit Send to a Friend | printer-friendly I use the term “celebrities” here very, very loosely. As loosely as I’d use it for, say, Al Franken. At the moment, things are touch and go . Exit question: If Coleman falters, Franken versus Cliff Clavin in 2014? Update (Ed): I’ve interviewed two of these celebrities on my show here at Hot Air. You can find my interview with Robert Davi here , and Stephen Baldwin here . The chat with Stephen was live at the Values Voter Summit, and I began getting a little claustrophobic with ...
NRSC celeb thinks Obama may be anti-Christ, 'sooooo evil'
Ben Smith's Blog —
Jonathan Martin noted with some amusement a new video from the NRSC video featuring celebrities you may not have heard of, plus Pat Boone in a swimming pool, attacking Al Franken.
A reader adds an odd note: One of those "celebs," Victoria Jackson, a Saturday Night Live vet (though no Franken admirer) voices rather strong feelings about Barack Obama on her website:
I don't want a political label, but Obama bears traits that resemble the anti- Christ and I'm scared to death that un- educated people will ignorantly vote him into office.
You see, what bothers me most, ...
GOP Turns To Rapid Anti-Obama Comedian To Go After Franken
Politics on HuffingtonPost.com —
The National Republican Senatorial Committee has been launching an all out ad campaign against Al Franken in an effort to protect Norm Coleman's Senate seat. And on Tuesday, they trotted out a group of B-list celebrities in a spot that claimed Franken is an extremist even by the standards of his old profession.
The GOP should have done a better job vetting its spokespeople. Seconds into the NRSC ad, Victoria Jackson, a former Saturday Night Live member herself, said of Franken: "We don't all write dirty articles for Playboy."
This charge, of course, has only ...

Senate GOP Committee Takes Out Big Loan For Home Stretch
The NRSC has taken out a $5 million loan in the home stretch of the campaign, joining other party committees that have made the same decision in order to maximize gains -- or in this case, minimize losses -- on Election Day. The party's big challenge will be to avoid a nine-seat loss that would give the Dems a filibuster-proof majority, but even a Dem majority that came close to that would be highly damaging for the GOP.

I thought this anti-Franken NRSC commercial was a joke
pandagon.net - we are the public option —
by Pam Spaulding
Then again, maybe it is. I can’t believe that they dug up these grade Z celebs:
As Ben notes, one of the celebs is washed up SNL vet Victoria Jackson, who has this ace wingnuttia about Obama up on her personal web site. Again, this is so ridiculous that it looks like satire. Alas, no. I don’t want a political label, but Obama bears traits that resemble the anti- Christ and I’m scared to death that un-educated people will ignorantly vote him into office.
You see, what bothers me most, besides ...

Election 08: McCain: Saturday Night Loser
The Nation: Top Stories —
When I heard that John McCain would appear on Saturday Night Live last weekend, I fretted: Will the likable "old McCain" charm votes back from Barack Obama? (And will he get a last-minute boost Monday night from SNL 's election-eve special?) Just because Sarah Palin's SNL spot did nothing to dent Tina Fey's caribou-in-the-headlights impression, there was no guarantee that the cast would not fawn over the frequent guest and one-time host of the show. But McCain was never pitted against his SNL doppelganger (Darrell Hammond) as Palin was. McCain was pitted against himself. And you gotta say, once he was back on the Rockefeller Center ...
