Ever since Adobe’s introduction of Photoshop, it has been all but expected that the standing President would have one or more photos doctored showing them holding a phone upside-down. The message being that the politician is so used to faking photo ops and so clueless that they didn’t even notice that the phone was upside-down as they posed for the press corps. Ha, ha.

The following photo was sent around relating to both the mortgage crisis and Katrina suggesting the President did little more than pose for photos during those great times of need.

Highlighting his front runner status, Obama already has his own upside down photo.

But where is the upside down photo of Hillary Clinton? Is her staff so clueless or in disarray that they can’t take the 60 minutes it takes to work up a quick fake and slip it onto the Internet?

There is perhaps no greater example of Hillary’s lack of technological savvy that despite having raised multiple tens of millions of dollars her campaign couldn’t find one teenager with a Mac to whip something up to match the Obama photo above. It is amazing how stuck in the past her campaign is, raise money, buy TV spots, raise money, buy more TV spots. No wonder Obama is the front runner.
