While I was at MC Hammer’s party at YouTube Live I caught up with Ben Relles of Barely Political and Obama Girl herself Amber Lee Ettinger. Both Ben and Amber Lee told me about their experiences and how the first Obama Girl I’ve got a crush on Obama came together at the last minute.

Ben’s first video was Box in a Box a spoof on the famous Saturday Night Live video Dick in a Box and his second video was I’ve Got a Crush on Obama which on the day of the shoot he used Craigslist to hire two directors to direct the video.

Barely Political now tops the charts reaching the number 2 spot on TubeMogul’s Top 40 with over 108 Million video views counted.
