Today the DNC launches Flipper TV, hours and hours of raw tracking video of Romney, Giuliani, Thompson and McCain on the campaign trail.
For months now, Democratic Party staffers have been tracking the Republican presidential front runners as they travel across the country, compiling a video library of candid moments as they campaign. With FlipperTV, Americans can now watch and download this video, and use the footage as they wish, putting raw material into the hands of the American people to hold these candidates accountable for their comments and actions.
As Michael Gehrke, DNC's Director of Research, puts it:
"People often say to us, `Why didn't you make an ad from that?' Now we can say, `Go make it yourself.' If it's good, maybe we'll steal it."
This is an incredible resource. The site currently features around 80 videos and will update as new footage comes in, starting with tonight's GOP CNN/YouTube debate. So scour the videos, download them over at Blip.tv and post what you come up with. There is a downside of course: you have to watch Republicans for hours on end; the upside, however, is that you could very well uncover the next macaca moment.
