Who is now old enough to vote and is ready to start in an counter ad with Obama:

The first girl in the ad is young Casey Knowles. It’s stock footage from 8 years ago when she worked as a TV extra – footage owned now by Getty Images and used by the Clinton campaign.
But they couldn’t have picked a more unwilling star.
“It’s really sort of ironic that my image would be used to advocate for Hillary when I myself do not,” said Casey.
She may only be 17, but Casey has some very strong political opinions. She turns 18 – legal voting age – in April, in plenty of time before the general election.

But she does admit she’ll vote for Clinton if she’s the candidate in the fall. I wonder why they didn’t ask her if she felt comfortable with Obama taking that 3:00 am call 🙂
