Worst has to be the Davis wheelchair ad. I'll take Squeal over Home, since McConnell was always gonna win.

Best is obviously that stupid castrating one, because it somehow turned a batsh**t "ZOMG AGENDA 21!!!!" loon into a U.S. Senator.

Yes, that castrating hogs line was perfection.

Nobody's mentioned "What rhymes with Alison Lundergan Grimes"? I still catch myself humming that damn song...

Oh, and that creepy Pat Roberts one.

The best was either "Home" or "Squeal" while the worst is a tossup between the wheelchair one and the condom as in CO.

I don't think it was the "best" ad in terms of being most effective, but my personal favorite was Mark Begich's "Ad Ideas"

The ironic this is, from the exit polls, Cotton was still winning religious voters with 60%+. No amount of pandering was going to get them voting D.

Running as Republican-lite doesn't work. News at 11.

I think a good deal of religious voters are going to not vote for you when you literally thump the bible at them as desperately as he did.

He might as well have gotten on his knees and yell "I LOVE JESUS! VOTE FOR ME! JUST DO IT CAUSE I LOVE JESUS!"

Was "What Rhymes with Alison Lundergan Grimes" an ad? I never thought it actually aired on TV...
