Hillary Gets the [Crossed] Finger
Hillary Clinton with soldier
signaling duressAn old picture of Hillary is going around. But there’s an updated message.
In the marketing of politics negatives count. Any “product” that produces above 40% negative is in the red zone.

Gallup has just released a poll on how many registered voters would vote for Hillary Clinton…Bad news for Hill’s juggernaut: a solid 51% of voters “definitely” would not vote for her.
So what does a politico, facing with declining market share, do? Launch New Hillary.
Which will be just as successful as. . . New Coke.
In the old days even the Main Stream Media would lurch into the truth — and capture the message of service men under duress.
The Pueblo crew under duress:
Pueblo Crew Time Magazine
18 October 1968
When a marketer is faced with a sinking product — or politico — the campaign should move away from the disjointed, move to the familiar, to the base.
Some products can’t be expanded into other market segments. New Coke didn’t work. Hillary Clinton with the military won’t work.
Don’t be like Hillary.
Just Don’t Do It.

Specialist Lacourse signaling duress
with John Kerry
Notice Specialist Lacourse’s right hand?
Anyone want to hazard a guess as to the signal she’s sending?
To some, it’s the POW hand signal for coercion. I was ready to send SAR when seeing that one.
Heh. Good for you, Specialist! Huah!!!
