Update 2/7/12: Clint Eastwood weighs in claiming it’s not pro Obama.
Or so says Chrysler, producer of the ad above featuring Clint Eastwood. Draw your own conclusions, but I can see why someone might think there’s a little pro Obama content going on there.
Two funny notes: 1) I overheard someone complaining that Eastwood had sold out. The quasi-logic being that he’s purportedly a conservative, and they hate Obama, or he’s conservative leaning libertarian, and they really hate Obama. Honestly, do people not understand what it is that actors do for a living? 2) Karl Rove claimed on Fox News the ad “offended him.” Translation — an optimistic message of hope in an improving economy could prove unbeatable, please don’t let the democrats realize that.
