Terrible But Funny Ad

I have been seeing a certain commercial on TV a lot recently. It starts out by talking about the high gas prices. Then it asks who is responsible for the evil high gas prices. You see a picture of Obama on a podium. The crowd starts chanting the answer to who is responsible for high gas prices: Obama, Obama, Obama.

You have to give the McCain media people some credit. This commercial is absolutely hilarious. The commercial never comes out and says that Barack is to blame for high gas prices. And they do not point to any facts behind the commercial.

One good thing about the commercial is that, at the end, John McCain comes out and states that he approved the commercial. He does not behind some committee. McCain won some points from me with this ad. Now it is time for Obama to do something just as inventive. I am waiting.

Obama Ads

So Obama clinched the Democratic nomination for the presidential candidate. That was one tough fight. Hillary Clinton would not give up no matter how hard the Democratic Party pressured her. But in the end the primary votes were cast. And there was nothing else that Hillary could do to stop the Obama campaign from grabbing the ticket.

I recently saw an advertisement on TV for Obama. Although I tried hard to listen to it, there were people in the room making too much noise for me to concentrate on the message. The one thing I did notice was that it seemed like a clean commercial. There was no jabs at McCain. Just a positive message on why you should vote for Obama. This did not get my vote. But it made me respect Obama a bit. It is probably just his PR people trying to get some good will from the viewers. It looks like this is working.
