Gubernatorial Candidate Office Fails At Tweeting

One Politician's Incredibly Unfortunate Tweet

A couple of days ago, a spokesman from the office of Meg Whitman, gubernatorial candidate for California, tweeted on the campaign feed. He intended to link to a video in which the state police complained about their opponent, Jerry Brown's, 'soft on crime' policies.

Unfortunately, he didn't get the coding quite right, and this is the video he ended up linking to instead.

Soo... great mix-up or greatest mix-up?

How long before that guy becomes the new Rick Roll?

I think he already has. I remember an old Let's Play thread over at Something Awful had all it's videos replaced with that one and a few others (or at least it did, before SA made the posts in the LP sub-forum readable to MEMBERS ONLY. FUCK YOU, Something Awful.)

Isn't Meg from the technology field? and she can't link a video strait?

OMG that is pretty amazing. <3

That guy's more entertaining than the original video would have been.
