The "morph" is an old standby in political advertising - it's increasingly cheap to edit video together to make the facial features of Generic Oklahoman (or any other red state) Democrat into Hillary Clinton and hammer home the message that he/she's a loathsome liberal. Connecticut Democrat Ned Lamont (last seen here), in his run against Joe Lieberman, is trying out a variation on morphing that's more like a Clutch Cargo episode than a political ad.

If you want more of this but prefer electronic music to Democratic primary politics, check out the Chemical Brothers' video for "Get Yourself High."
