Nicked from Atrios:

ETA: Yes, it is a spoof.

Bwahaha!
The only sour note for me is, with the way the Clinton camp has been doing things lately, I'm not quite sure if this is serious or a parody...

I want to hope it's a parody, but just the fact that I'm not sure I think is tragic.

I always notice they don't repeat the "...jobs have been gone for TWENTY FIVE YEARS AND THERE'S NOTHING TO REPLACE THEM..." part.

Seriously - that means the what he's talking about have been gone long enough for those that LOST the job to have GRAND KIDS!

When officials of Stephen Harper's government "leak" a memo containing false information that hurts Obama just before a primary....

(But seriously, I assume the creator of this "ad" chose Celine Dion partly because her being Canadian is a big fat clue that it's a spoof.)

If they had the primaries starting in July, we'd still have all the campaigning starting the day after the previous election.

Sure she can. Doesn't mean anyone has to listen. Then again, with the exchange rate where it is today... :-)

Sadly, satire like this? Someone will believe it's true and start quoting it faithfully.

People are stupid.

Hillary Clinton may have to issue a statement that her campaign didn't produce this ad. Dissing Bruce Springsteen could cost a lot of votes.

If it weren't for the "and Celine Dion", I couldn't have been certain that was satire. It gets harder to tell with each passing day.

ROFL. Thanks. (This has been a Springsteen-ful week, following the death of The Phantom. I'm finding out that my tolerance for his music is just as high as it was twenty-five years ago, and I can hear show after show without wearying of it.)
