If you missed the 3/13/14 Daily Show, [Jon has invented a new thing called “McConnelling.”](http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-march-13-2014/-mcconnelling?xrs=synd_facebook_031414_tds_55) What you do is take Mitch McConnell’s new two-and-a-half minute completely-wordless campaign ad, and dub in your own music, thus… greatly improving it. Lucky for us, there’s a site called YouDub which allows the average Internet surfer to dub any soundtrack over any video. So without further ado, I give you my [#McConnelling](http://www.youdubber.com/index.php?video=nrdTX8m5G98&video_start=7&audio=lKSQtodyc9M&audio_start=0), and I invite you to post your own. ---

On the Daily Show yesterday they put a McConnell ad to music and called it McConnelling. Apparently there are now a few dozen, maybe hundred videos doing that. Has anyone seen any they thought were particularly good that stand out? [This](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfWZBeeoo1A)one isn’t bad, nor is [this](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1pOwJfjeos)one but the latter is technically something different (but you really can’t find that many songs that go along with McConnell’s ad anyway). ---

For those of you who aren’t aware, The Daily Show called attention to Mitch McConnell’s new odd promotional video that had no dialogue, just some bad music. They noticed that you can overdub just about any music and it becomes **hilarious!** [The Daily Show segment in question.](http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-march-13-2014/-mcconnelling) I wanted to give it a crack and paired it up with [Minnie Riperton’s “Loving You”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYtAHibYQi0) and the results are quite satisfactory. I also did a version synched up to [Comanche by the Revels](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbaJpu30-FA) (which you may recall from Pulp Fiction). What videos have you found worth a chuckle? ---

If McConnell was smart, he’d go right along with this and make the ad available for people to have fun with; his percentage of the under-50 vote would increase dramatically, I bet. ---
