3 a.m. Girl Supports Obama

Clinton’s "3 a.m. phone call" ad is popularly assumed to have given her an edge in last Tuesday’s primaries. Now it turns out that one of the two children sleeping under the watchful eye of future President Clinton is a seventeen-year-old Obama volunteer and precinct captain. The Clinton campaign purchased the stock footage featuring Casey Knowles from Getty Images. Knowles, who was unaware of the ad until her family caught it on a "Daily Show" parody, joked that she should do a counter-ad with Barack Obama. According to this AP story, the Obama campaign has already contacted her.
