Carly Fiorina’s politcal ad writes a new chapter in the book of crazy

Published February 3rd, 2010   |  1 Comment

Wow, just wow…

Look, I’m not going to talk politics here… I’ve done that a bunch with the whole Focus On The Family Super Bowl thing and I’m kind of done with it for awhile. However, this is a site that makes fun of advertising and wow… this one is just awesomely bad.

First, love the super sheep on the pedestal getting hit by lightning.  It’s stock footage magic and whoever pulled this together should be proud for doing so much with so little.

Second, love, love, love the guy doing the voice over.  He sounds a little like Orson Wells, and given the conservative target market, that crowd is probably slurping down his dulcet tones in big gulps.  Wow, so judgmental! I feel like I’m the one he’s getting pissed at instead of this Campbell guy.  I personally love it when attack ads make it sound like they are talking directly to the other candidate so all the viewer has to do is respond with, “Yeah! What about that?!”

Sweet, sweet horrible ad.  There’s blood in the water… I almost want full-blown election season to kick in again so I can make fun of more gems like this… but no, that’s just too much, too soon.
