This correlation video shows the shocking link between McCain’s support for Bush and Bush’s falling approval. The video, one of the most popular today, was created by an Obama supporter who wanted to create his own version of an Obama ad. It’s interesting to see that user generated videos are having such a significant impact in this election.
The video shows McCain used to support the slim majority of George Bush’s decisions. However, as time went on, McCain’s approval gradually increased to 100%. At the same time, public approval for Bush continued to fall.
The video leaves you with the question: “Do you support Bush today MORE than you did four year ago?”
Below, I've enclosed two other examples of user generated politics.
