Granted, this is not an ad that is going to roll a Republican’s socks up and down… but for the Democratic voting base?
This works:
…and if Obama ever chooses to parachute in and do a solid for his buddy Tom, a guy who in 2010 when Obama had no friends feted the president at a rally in Charlottesville?
I think this is your Democratic nominee, folks. Could be wrong… but I’m not seeing it.
…but you know what Perriello’s ad is missing? Truly missing? That secret ingredient that makes every ad truly great. You guessed it…
Masked men.
That’s right — masked men in 1980s-era BDUs with aviator bags full of ‘splozives coming out of Perriello’s wooden all-American farmhouse and piling into a conspicuously (is that even the right word anymore?) white van only to stare down with evil intent the polite loving all-American family playing Communist Kickball in the driveway:
Who knew the IRA was such a problem in Virginia’s well-heeled suburbs?
Or maybe we have two peace loving red-blooded Americans who are simply late for their paintball game? You know… you get to playing Call of Duty, fun flies when you’re doing time at 4am… then you fall asleep and whaddya know, you’re 15 minutes late to the regional airsoft championships and have to wake up at the crack of noon — no coffee, no bagel, no Cheerios… not even time to brush.
I mean, I’d be all wince-y and miserable, too.
I mean, it’s a theory — right? It’s that or a stanza from the SAM Song…
Either way, Bryce should ask for his money back. What a silly, low-rent ad that was.
