MSNBC Promo: 'Experience the Power of Change'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

It's taken them awhile, but good to see that MSNBC has now seamlessly integrated its own promotional advertising with that of the Obama campaign.

An MSNBC promo that just aired, touting the network's election coverage, concludes: "Watch MSNBC, and experience the power of change." And as you'll see from the screencap, who is at the center of MSNBC's coverage but Keith Olbermann. Oh, and prior to its parting shot, the promo's soundtrack is the voice of JFK, in his famous "ask not" line from the 1961 inaugural address.

If McCain wins the change they’ll need is their diapers.

If you are NOT to ask what your country can "do for you", then you shouldn't be demanding national healthcare.

We need to learn how to cheat like the dems just so we could watch Olberman’s head explode and Chrissy’s leg starting to tingle from the urine running down it.

I am looking forward to watching Rachel(is that a man or woman???),Crissy and Keithie implode tonight. Yes it will be delightful my little ones...oh i'm melting.

That Rachel person will need to be 'talked down' big time unless she has taken her meds like the last couple of nights.

The dims are already taking their meds because they know they are losing BIGTIME.

McCain/Palin win in a LANDSLIDE.

Keep the faith.

Don't drink the Kool-aid.

From my cold dead hands because I'm a bitter-clinger.

God Bless America.

Good wins over evil.

Country First.

Fight for what is right!

Maybe Olbermann recalls something about “the agony of defeat”
