Here is video of an interview done by CNN's Campbell Brown with former Hillary Clinton supporter Lynn Forester de Rothschild who has endorsed Sen. John McCain for President. Brown interviews her with an indignant attitude, almost disbelieving that Rothschild could even consider supporting McCain.

It points out Obama's hypocritical calling for troop withdrawals publicly, while privately he was working against it. The ad actually does not go far enough.
