Frankly, We're Concerned About the GOP's Hillary Clinton-Stalking Squirrel

Yesterday the GOP released a video on YouTube titled "Campaign Tails," which is a "new documentary video" -- as the GOP describes it -- "starring the squirrel who has been tailing Hillary Clinton and the Ready for Hillary bus on her 'book tour.' The video delves into the squirrel's past work in 2008, his disappearance, and his return to the political stage."(You may recall that last month Hillary actually approached the squirrel and cheerfully handed it a copy of "Hard Choices"; ABC News posted video of their encounter with the headline "Hilary Clinton Gives Her Book to Republican Squirrel.")The video seems to be part of the GOP's rebranding from the Obamacare Must Die party to the Stop Hillary party. In a statement, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus says that people are curious about the squirrel and have been "asking about everything from his previous work against ACORN to his name. This in-depth account of his past work, his hiatus from politics, and his return should answer many of those questions. Watching this video is not a hard choice."
