Did Clinton use the “N” Word?

  There is quite a little brouhaha brewing over Hillary Clinton’s latest “Red Phone” commercial and whether the “N” word is subliminally pasted on one of the children’s pajamas.   Check out the commercial above paying close attention at the 12 second mark. The letters NIG are clearly visible above the crease in the child’s pajamas.  Is this a deliberate attempt at subliminal racism?       I thought the Bush “RATS” controversy in 2000 was absurd - remember the commercial where the word Bureaucrats faded from view leaving behind the word RATS -  but this is just off the map.    As any regular reader of this blog knows I’m a bit in the tank for Obama, even overlooking his little Farrakhan faux paux at the Ohio debate, but suggestions that the NIG is some sort of subliminal fear tactic is just ludicrous.  The NIG is probably just a part of the words Good Night.     I won’t deny that each and every frame of these commercials are carefully constructed, it would be naive to think differently, but what we are looking at at worst is another example of the incompetence that has seeped through the Clinton campaign,  not subliminal racism.         I just hope the Obama campaign doesn’t overplay their hand on this one, lest they risk an overdue backlash right on the eve of the little tuesday primary and that could be the fulcrum on which this race finally turns.Â
