Yep, attack Santorum and you're gonna get that. Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Keystone Phil on February 15, 2012, 11:29:05 AM LOL!
I didn't make that connection. Rick always has a lot of fun with his ads. Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Lief 🗽 on February 15, 2012, 11:30:58 AM It reminds me of the boxing ad from 2006.

It was a wrestling ad. ;) This reminds me of every bizarre 2006 ad he ran and, again, I'm amused. Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: riceowl on February 15, 2012, 11:43:13 AM why so much santorum on his shirt?
santorum everywhere! Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Mr. Morden on February 15, 2012, 03:09:43 PM Why didn't they just get Guy Smiley as the Romney look alike?:

Also, it looks like Romney got a little dirty after messing with Santorum. It's okay, Rick left his mark. Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: World politics is up Schmitt creek on February 15, 2012, 03:48:14 PM RICK SANTORUM IS A GREAT PERSON

Post by: World politics is up Schmitt creek on February 15, 2012, 04:01:45 PM Does anyone think the mud-santorum link was intentional? That's why my post was what it was. I honestly think that Rick Santorum is a very successful and relatively good-natured troll at this point in his life and career.

Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Queen Mum Inks.LWC on February 15, 2012, 06:53:00 PM The ad is good, but I don't necessarily think he's a "great look alike"... it took me a while to make that connection. When I first saw the ad, I thought it was just supposed to be a GOP establishment character slinging mud at Santorum.
Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Lincoln Republican on February 15, 2012, 08:12:08 PM Romney laughed off the ad Wednesday on Fox News, calling it “pretty good.”
“That’s the nature of politics, which is you always accuse the other guy of what you’ve done yourself,” he said. “My campaign hasn’t run any negative ads against Rick Santorum ... I’m not saying we won’t finally go after the guy, but frankly, he’s been going after me.” Now THAT is one class act! And the truth too! Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: World politics is up Schmitt creek on February 15, 2012, 08:14:37 PM Yeah, for a given value of 'truth' that doesn't take the effects of certain Supreme Court decisions we could name into account.

Restore Our Future is defined as a pro-Romney PAC, almost always its first descriptor. While Romney and his campaign manager may not have coordinated overtly, to say that a PAC whose primary purpose is supporting Mitt Romney is not part of the Romney campaign is indeed dishonest. Great ad! Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: memphis on February 15, 2012, 10:32:42 PM The right wing candidate plays the victim card. I'm oh so surprised ::)

Post by: Keystone Phil on February 15, 2012, 10:44:17 PM Ok, so it seems like we're throwing out the "GOP'S EXTREMIST AGENDA!" talking points because that's getting boring and just saying that Republicans only play the victim card (as in that's literally all they do).

I’m not saying we won’t finally go after the guy, but frankly, he’s been going after me.” Now THAT is one class act! And the truth too! Even if it is, I doubt that it's a fruitful tack for Romney to take. In the minds of voters, "Mitt Romney" is synonymous with "rich guy who suffocates his opponents in ungodly amounts of negative advertising." Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Badger on February 15, 2012, 11:28:52 PM His was a screed about a political party. Yours was primarily against him personally. Most of your posts, when challenged, are. Consistently as rain in April for 5 years now.
Smiley-face emoticons make such posts no less predictable, and certainly no less unpleasant. Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Small Business Owner of Any Repute on February 16, 2012, 12:08:50 AM The Romney actor looks very Nixonian in that. Very good casting.
Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Badger on February 16, 2012, 12:17:08 AM That might be the most (only?) effective ad running against general "negative campaigning" I've seen.

I saw that bit with Romney and his whole attitude is why people dont like him. Everyone knows his people (superpac or not) have waged an epic negative campaign and he is all like "who me?...I'm pure as snow, but those other guys are the ones doing it." He comes across as exactly the worst thing people hate about politicians...a spinning liar. Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: ○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└ on February 16, 2012, 02:28:07 AM Why is Mitt Romney's gun shooting santorum and not Santorum?
Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: Eraserhead on February 16, 2012, 03:15:00 AM I'm honestly amazed that Santorum's campaign would put out an ad that plays so perfectly into the santorum meme.
Title: Re: Santorum swings back; finds a great look alike of Romney for ad. Post by: M on February 16, 2012, 10:40:22 AM His was a screed about a political party. Yours was primarily against him personally. Most of your posts, when challenged, are. Consistently as rain in April for 5 years now. Smiley-face emoticons make such posts no less predictable, and certainly no less unpleasant. His was trolling about a political party. Your follow up was your usual trolling directed at me. And you have the nerve to say you'd be a fair moderator regarding my posts. Precious! By the way, my post wasn't challenged in a serious way at all. Memphis said the party is 100% about victimization. Now I don't expect much from you, Badger, but surely you can't believe that he was making a serious point when he said that. Now that's enough. I won't let you derail this topic just because you're a hateful, bitter person. Knee jerk personal attacks = hateful and bitter. Correct. And that explains your out-of-nowhere appearance and attack on me. Quote Drink a warm cup of Santorum, take a nice Santrorum bath, and go to bed. Perfect behavior for a moderator! You have some very serious problems, man. All of this built up anger towards Santorum that you insist on taking out on me. You must know him. Are you Doug Walgren, by chance? Whoa! I have no dog in this fight, politically or otherwise, but your language is getting very personal. My best advice is just to let it go. Incidentally, I agree that the casting is brilliant! |
