The Empire Strikes Barack! (from the makers of Baracky)

I thought that the Rocky analogy was great.  But the same people who brought us Barack have now dubbed Obama the Luke Skywalker of presidential elections.  It's a great mashup of recent events.  We know who Darth Vader is...

I loved the Baracky video.  This one is a little darker and longer but it ends well or course.  It has it all Debate-gate, Wright at NPC, Hoosier Hoops, Mark Penn's resignation.  Bill Richardson, Howard Dean, and even Abe Lincoln make an appearance.  The Star Wars series (except the prequels) are my favorite movies of all time.  So many life lessons.  It's funny how we all want Obama to lash out at the slimey attacks by Hillary and Co.  But Luke was weakest when he lashed out in anger.  So perhaps Obama is correct in taking the high road.  The force is strong with this one.  

Pass it on if you like it.  Here's Baracky

•  Tips/Recs

  Obama vs McCain.  Can you think of any movie analogies?

  •  Obama vs. McCain? I can see

    A Few Good Men making a good film to use as a basis for a video.  Obama as Cruise and McCain as Nicholson.

              •  Because it Would Address John McCain.....

                ...it would HAVE to be titled, "Knight of The Living Dead".

                The Zombies would be NeoCons, Bush, Cheney, Limpbaugh, Hannity, Colmes, Rove, Bill Crystal, Annie the Trannie, Malkin, McCain, and (in some starring role as the Zombie-in-Chief) Hillary.

                If you've ever seen the movie, you should have noticed the amazing resemblance between the original hero of the movie and Barack Obama.

                The only problem I have with the concept is the end of the film.

  •  Zogby: BO tied in Indiana, Leads in NC

    I'd like to believe this numbers, but am somewhat skeptical.

    Zogby's numbers were more accurate in Pennsylvania than those of any other pollster, however.

    Released: May 02, 2008

    http://zogby.com/...

    Zogby Poll: Obama Holds Big Lead Over Clinton in NC; Pair tied in Indiana

    UTICA, New York—Five days before the important Democratic presidential primaries in North Carolina and Indiana, Barack Obama of Illinois enjoys a substantial lead in one state and remains tied with Hillary Clinton of New York in the other, a new Zogby daily tracking poll shows.

    Obama leads by a 50% to 34% margin over Clinton in North Carolina, while the two are tied at 42% support each in Indiana.

    by PatriciaVa on Fri May 02, 2008 at 04:26:48 AM PDT

    •  It's Zogby

      Do not believe Zogby. Chris Bowers always has good poll roundups because he averages them all out.

      by 4jkb4ia on Fri May 02, 2008 at 07:22:20 AM PDT

      •  Zogby was exactly right in PA

        Last poll had Clinton winning by 10.

        by realwischeese on Fri May 02, 2008 at 09:54:53 AM PDT

        •  A stopped clock is right twice a day.

          On the pollster "report cards", Zogby didn't do too well on certain markers actually predicting certain things, like turnout among various groups etc.  They basically had a mixture of wrong estimations that in the end gave the right number.

          by LJW on Fri May 02, 2008 at 01:13:52 PM PDT

    •  Zogby was spot on in PA

      Don't bash Zogby! What, everyone is a statistical polling expert now?  Poll of polls is best, but maybe Zogby is spot on.  Importantly, this is great news for Obama.  The pendulum is swinging back!

  •  Well, for whatever it's worth --

      I was riffing on the Star Wars theme in regards to "Jedi Obama" a whopping two years ago --

      This was a political cartoon that I did, leading up the '06 elections, featuring Obama as the up-and-coming new shinging star for the insurgent Democrats, but it's good ol' Joe Lieberman cast in the role of the Emperor (it is pretty uncanny how much Lieberman looks like the actor who played Emperor Palpatine...!).  Remember how Lieberman was technically Obama's "mentor" in the Senate......

    •  Henry Fonda???

      I'm a big fan of Bogart and his films.  Henry Fonda was NOT in "The Caine Mutiny".  You may be confusing "The Caine Mutiny" with the film, "Mister Roberts" in which Mr. Fonda did star.

      Though, Using the film "Mister Roberts" and putting Barack in the lead role might be appropo.

      by Celtic Merlin on Fri May 02, 2008 at 12:52:35 PM PDT

      •  I stand corrected.

        Merged the two flicks in my mind.  Fonda and Bogart were both great.  I would have voted for either of them.  Today I had to settle for voting for Barack. (Early ballot-NC.)

  'No...no...no.

  A mash-up with Episode 3 would be cool as well.

  'If so powerful you are, why leave??'

  'You will not stop me. Soon Darth Hillary will become more powerful than either of us!'

  'Faith in your new apprentice, misplaced may be, as is your faith in the dark side of the Force.'

  'If you're not with me, you're my enemy.'

    •  we know it now

      I was in 1st grade when ROTJ came out. My dad was a big sci-fi fan so he took me and my sister out of school to go see it on opening day. We waited in line forever. I was the first one in my class to see it, and my teacher asked me to talk about it. I revealed that Luke and Leia were siblings (spoiler!), and she said "But now Luke can't marry Princess Leia."

      Anyway, there was always the big sexual tension between Leia and Solo, from their very first meeting. Into the garbage chute, flyboy!

      Personally, I think Richardson looks more like Admiral Akbar.

•  Ok, am I a total sap?

  I'll admit that I have some pretty deep childhood ties to the music and feel of the original Star Wars movies.  But still ... it's a bit ridiculous that I actually teared-up a little when Barack Skywalker shouted, "No, I'll never join you."  

  Silly?

  Or reflecting something deeper?

  •  Oh, it's not silly

    It's the same reason the Star Wars movies were so big.

    It plays into the hero archetype. And we need a hero so badly right now...

    •  Yes, and the forces of evil ...

      Are so powerful and never cease in their attempt to seduce, control, and destroy.

  •  Join the club. This vid was timely.

    All day I was thinking (sadly) that Hillary had gone over to the dark side, seeing how her aide was feeding the right wing smear machine that he had once raged against, sucking up to the VRWC, seeing the endless attacks on Obama... and Obama was being tempted but refusing to go to the dark side.   And then I come home and see this, and I start blubbering.  <<sniff>>

  That just brightened my morning big time.  When I'm canvassing in Indianapolis on Saturday...everytime I see HRC supporters I'll imagine that they are storm troopers...

•  watch it while you can, folks!!!

  Baracky was taken down off YouTube and elsewhere when MGM complained about copyright violations.

  The Star Wars franchise is produced by Twentieth Century Fox, and we know who they want to win, so watch (and rec) The Empire Strikes Barack now before Murdoch pulls it from the net.
