Clay Shirky talks to Salon about online organizing, Obama Girl, and more; polls show Obama Girl is getting tiresome; the Hillary Clinton Deathwatch is keeping a close eye on Hillary's chances; Jeff Jarvis asks who should be the nation's CTO; now all of the candidates have produced versions of Hillary's "3am" ad; The John McCain Facebook Challenge encourages Republicans to befriend the McCainiac; and McCain's campaign hires a new web guru.

I'm glad that TechPresident blogger David All posted the "I've Got a Crush...on Obama" video this morning, because it opens up a discussion that Josh Levy and I started having yesterday when we got the same email tip about the video that I presume David got. First off, do watch the video--it's hilarious, the lyrics are priceless ("You're into border security...let's break this border between you and me...Universal health care reform...it makes me warm"), and BarelyPolitical, the comedy team that wrote the music and filmed the video, should probably get hired by Saturday Night Live. (They're up to nearly 30,000 views on YouTube, by the way, as of this morning.) But is this a political video mashup or a job application? And in this day and age, should we care if it's both at the same time?
