Senator Clinton lifts one from the LBJ playbook

This is Hillary Clinton's latest bid for the "security mom" vote.

Thematically it resembles an old LBJ campaign advert from 1964 depicting the "red telephone" on the President's desk in the oval office beeping away with a voice over imploring voters to "keep it in responsible hands".
Alas I can't find a link to the specific advert in question...so we will have to make do with that shopworn shibboleth "The Daisy Ad"

Personally I think palaver like this only advantages McCain...but what do I know anyway?
