Things are continuing to heat up in the 2008 US Presidential Race (or Indecision '08 as the venerable Jon Stewart would say). It's already reached tabloid-worthy proportions and we're still over a year off. Case and point: Rudy Giuliani's 17 year-old daughter actively supporting Barack Obama on her facebook profile? All important campaign issues aside, this stuff is gold. So mini-Giuliani has clearly found her means of showing support, but what can you do here on Searchles? We've found campaign-related Searchles TV channels to be a pretty effective tool for spreading word and supporting our respective candidates. It's also easily embedded into your blog or myspace page and you can choose the videos from any video source (YouTube, mySpace, etc). Have a look at the Hillary Clinton channel one of our users created:
And speaking of campaigns and general indecision - we've noticed a certain cutting edge marketing campaign from our dear friends at Coors. There's a rocky mountain graphic on the new Coors Light bottles that turns blue when the bottle is, in fact, cold. Now I don't know about you, but I tend not to care whether or not a beer is cold until it's already in my greedy little hands, at which point I'm able to use my god-given sense of touch to determine the beer temp. I feel said blue rocky mountain visual is an utter and complete waste of time/money/life in general.
Dumbfounder, however, disagrees...and I quote, "If I see 2 beers, one 10 feet to the right of me, and one 10 feet to the left, and I know that one is cold and one is warm, I feel like this new invention is a lifesaver." Well way to suck the mystery right out of life, Dumbfounder. Regardless, there are the facts...we'll let you mull this one over with an ice cold (blue bottled) beer.
