Sexy Viral Political Videos

The much-beloved and highly entertaining video "I Got a Crush ... On Obama" has rightfully caused waves in the political marketing realm. The group that created the video, BarelyPolitical, has posted a follow up titled "Debate '08: Obama Girl vs Giuliani Girl". But others have gotten in on the act of using sex to sell political candidates. Someone has posted a Ron Paul video on YouTube which is, well, somewhat in the same vein. Click here to see it. (The attempted response to Obama Girl for Thompson's candidacy wasn't quite as effective.)

That's an odd bit of anachronism in the Paul video. Might not be considered work safe there at the end.

I don't know, I think the pro-Thompson video is just as good creatively as the Obama Girl video, if not better. No, not as eye-catching to red-blooded males, but you gotta love the Dylan homage.

Until the very end, I thought the Ron Paul video was going to go poke fun at the libertarian position on decriminalizing prostitution.
