Didn't like it

I don't get it. Hillary isn't saying anything exceptional in the voiceover, is she? I just don't understand how this makes sense.

I am not a fan of Hillary, so I would LIKE this to make sense to me. HELP! :-)

I think that is the point, Hillary, simply by being Hillary, makes many of us feel that way.

See Hillary is "IBM" and Obama is "Apple", it isn't about any specific thing Hillary said.

I don't get it. With the 1984 commercial, it WAS about what the dude was saying. [uiuc.edu]

Ok, I get your point, but I still thought it was funny.

OK. It's not like I am trying to defend Hillary here, I just didn't find it funny. :-)
