Highlighting the personal anecdotes of Democrats and Independents who
voted for and subsequently soured on President Barack Obama, a new
anti-Obama film is set to embolden Republican National Convention
attendees, and perhaps raise some eyebrows at the Democratic National
Convention.
The film, “The Hope And The Change,” is the handiwork of the conservative Citizen’s United Productions, whose 2010 case before the Supreme Court over its 2008 campaign film about Hillary Clinton lead to a rejiggering of campaign finance laws and gave rise to the era of super PACs.
This time the production group takes on Obama, hitting the president where it hurts: with his former supporters.
Showcasing the viewpoints of a diverse swath of real, battleground-state Democrats and Independents, selected from focus groups convened by Democratic pollster Pat Caddell and College of Charleston political science professor Kendra Stewart, the film details the evolution of the disenchanted Obama voter from the hope and tingles of election night to the disappointment and frustration of today.
