I’ve made every effort to steer clear of the Presidential race on this blog, but I couldn’t resist this one.
There’s no doubt that to tell your story to millions of people, you’re going to have to repeat yourself a lot. But I’ve never seen this point illustrated quite so vividly. Check out this mash-up of both Obama and McCain repeating themselves (over and over and over again) in the three Presidential debates. Enjoy.

(Oh, and please go out and vote next Tuesday.)
I certainly noticed that as well watching the rallies and debates.
There is a fine line between making a point and becoming a broken record. It’s not convincing, it’s just annoying. It makes them both look like they have nothing more of value to say, and are relying on the sound bites to win votes.
But it is amusing, my friend. ^_^
