Okay, I was all set to rip Hillary Clinton’s choice of campaign song, but I can’t anymore. She’s really impressed me.
You probably know the story: supporters were allowed to suggest songs on the Clinton website and Clinton’s top folks picked the one they liked best. Just today, they chose “You and I” by Celine Dion, which is great if you like shrieking Canadians and awful if you have taste. (You can hear the song at Clinton’s campaign site.)
But boy, have they headed off criticism big time. The video introducing the pick is genius. Pure genius. I’ve watched it twice and smiled more the second time. It even has Bill Clinton saying, “My money’s on Smashmouth!” Check it out here.
Note: After you’ve watched the video, come back and watch this one — tell us which is better.
