Clinton and Cruise - On the Campaign Trail
Hugh Atkin sent me another of his satirical videos following up on the great job he did mixing campaign footage of the candidates with David Bowie’s “Changes” (see What Voters Want Is…).
In this video, he mixes a teary eyed Hillary explaining “how she does it”, with Tom Cruise explaining, well, essentially the same thing. Enjoy!

Another great video edit! Hugh has talent, and is willing to use it for the satirical good of all.
This is the part of politics that makes it bearable. I liked the first video best, but both are excellent and made my day!!
Tom Cruise is such a putz. He cracks himself up!!
Not bad, but she can't sell it like Bill. She needs to learn to bite her bottom lip. That's the secret weapon!!
Yeah, biting a quivering bottom lip sells it. That's the money shot.
Both of these are great!! I agree with newsviper, they help us be able to stand the process.
Was this an interview, or a clip from Jerry McGuire?
I am thinking Jerry McGuire but I saw that so long ago I'm not sure.
Hey Doug, ask Hugh!
I sent him an email, will let you know...

Okay, I haven't heard back yet from Hugh, but I did stumble across the Cruise video on both YouTube and on Gawker who writes, “If Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah’s couch was an 8 on the scale of scary, this is a 10.”
Apparently the video is an internal Church of Scientology orientation tool in which Cruise rhapsodizes about his religion. The page has been viewed over 2.3 million times, a record for Gawker. It was reportedly pulled from YouTube but I found it there today. If YouTube does pull it, you can find it on Gawker who says they won't remove it even if hassled by Scientology attorneys.

He is a cult fanatic! I watched the video(all 10 minutes of it) and can only guess that he will either self destruct or have to be committed.
How does someone get so far off course, and how do they ever find their way back to reality?
My prediction: his head will explode from the mutant growth of his ego.
Wow is all I can say. This video is great like the "Changes" one! I hope he keeps making them!
The one of Tom Cruise doing a commercial for Scientology shows what a cult-brainwashed fanatic looks like. Designer religions for rich actors and people who don't like real religion make me sick.
