...the hard pill to swallow is that this is what our national moral code has become.
I am bracing myself for the worst; I simply no longer have faith in the American public to do anything less robotic than vote for the incumbent.

An old campaigner told me one time that it's hard to gain votes, but its damn easy to lose them. Politicians need to be careful to avoid alienating anybody that don't absolutely have to.
Believe it or not, there are quite a few democrats that attend catholic and protestant churches. The democrat hold on these voters is fairly tenuous as it is---I would have advised against running this ad, as I envision many moderate democrat christian moms not really liking this ad a lot.
The loose, tattooed college female demographic was probably going to vote for Obama anyway. If Obama's campaign feels like they have to tighten this voter group up, this might well be the final desperate act of a losing campaign.

Nothing more than a ridiculous attempt to polish-up Obama's tarnished "rock star" image from 2008. There is that "cool factor" again.  Why anyone would listen to this lesbian by default is beyond me. Dunham is nothing more than an attention seeking fool, trying to drum up buzz about her HBO show. And that is clearly made evident by her recent twitter post from yesterday: “It tickles me to no end that while my twitter feed was blowing up with conservative hate I was literally hanging out in a pile of bisexuals.” Blatant attempt at ruffling more feathers. Lame.

I like the first response after the video clip
This is a great counter argument:
Quote:
I’m picturing the co-ed who wakes up the next morning hungover and filled with regret. She’s sick at heart after sleeping with an irresponsible, manipulative, abusive jerk who just happens to have the slimey talent of charm. Even though the first time was a mistake, she can now choose with a clear head and select a man who will give her the respect she deserves. Her mistake should also serve as a warning to others now coming of age. In this way, I think the analogy is perfectly appropriate. It just happens to be the wrong side making the case.

Lena Dunham, the creator and star of HBO's "Girls," is no stranger to oversharing — and she's done it again in an ad on behalf of President Obama in which she suggestively describes what "your first time" should be like.

This is not the Obama's campaign doing. This is Lena D's doing.
As Susa said, "Dunham is nothing more than an attention seeking fool, trying to drum up buzz about her HBO show"

That is a good point. I don't know. Generally I thought the candidate will add, I am ___________ and I endorse this message. There are a lot of PACs and groups who do their thing.

The Men in Black tech props department is locked up. But real life has consequences. And most people have difficulty admitting out loud that they got whamboozled. They don't have to articulate it out loud in the voting booth. And some of them are going to show up.
