It's not clear that this video by Blip.tv user "George McCain" is for or against John McCain. At the Republican National Convention this week, campaigners passed out stickers that read "Proud Bush-McCain Republican" to delegates -- including an apparently flummoxed Sen. Norm Coleman -- on why they're proud to wear it. <p><b>Update:</b> The video is a production of Lobbyists for McCain.]]></description>

<p>Blip.tv user &#8220;<a href="http://georgemccain.blip.tv/" target="_blank">George McCain</a>&#8221; has posted a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lob3BsKCZds" target="_blank">video</a> shot September 3 at the Republican National Convention in which campaigners handed out stickers to RNC attendees that read &#8220;Proud Bush-McCain Republican&#8221; and filmed them discussing why they&#8217;re proud to wear the badge. The stickers look like official McCain schwag, but the message is a tad unclear: Some interviewees seem to be aping a line used by McCain&#8217;s opponents &#8212; that he&#8217;ll simply continue Bush&#8217;s policies (one woman slips up and refers to McCain with that first name, George) &#8212; while others seem to struggle with reasons to support McCain. Making cameos are Denny Hastert and Minnesota&#8217;s own Norm Coleman, who seems intent on mimicking a rubber-faced Jim Carey as he struggles to answer a question about how he feels about the past eight years of Bush.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> A new version of the video, which was produced by <a href="http://lobbyistsformccain.com" target="_blank">Lobbyists for McCain</a> (formerly Billionaires for Bush) is uploaded. See the <a href="http://georgemccain.blip.tv/#1240039" target="_blank">original video here</a>.</p>
