THE CHANGE WE NEED?   WTFOMG???

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pd-pMhboEX4&eurl

It's not THAT great, I don't like the overall tone of the ad, but the messaging is great and the timing is perfect natch.

Script For "Crisis" (TV :30)

ANNCR: Our economy in crisis. Only proven reformers John McCain and Sarah Palin can fix it.

Tougher rules on Wall Street to protect your life savings.

No special interest giveaways.

Lower taxes to create new jobs.

Offshore drilling to reduce gas prices.

McCain - Palin.

Leadership, experience, for the change we need.

JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approved this message.

Eh, not too shabby.  I give it a B.  30 second spots are hard to convey a detailed message, but I think they could have offered one point of interest in there.

A-.  Hits the right themes, and continues to (pretty effectively) steal the change meme from Obama.

Some of Obama's change commercials have been less specific.

An excellent ad in favor of Barrack Obama being President. Oh wait, its by McCain? I guess its effective if I can stop laughing at the utter joke of him running on being "tough on Wall Street" or "lowering oil prices".

Who took money from Oil companies? What was the party of the members in congress involved in the Fannie/Freddie flop?

Not McCain and not Republicans.

Please keep defending Barack Milhous Obama with your inane comments.

Lunar, where's A+?

They don't need to give vast amounts of money to McCain when the guy is stupid enough to swallow their crap on drilling wholesale. And much of the credit collapse is caused because we have toothless SEC which didn't bother finding out that Lehman brothers was filing fraudelent numbers to its investors because the GOP believes that Sarbanes-OXley is too hard on companies.

Anyway, watch on Oil prices. They are driven by exchange rates more than actual supply and demand. They were high this year because the dollar was low. Now that the dollar has gained 15% they have come down. Bush lowered oil prices by abandoning his weak dollar policy. If McCain institutes tax cuts with no revenue making up for them anywhere else the dollar will fall massively which will drive up commodity prices beyond the ability of a hundred Alaskas to affect them. Its really quite simple.

My polling options are harsh.  For the crappier ads I don’t offer any +’s or –‘s.  In this case, I’m treating the ad like my school: no special GPA boost for A+’s.

It’s not really A+ material anyway.  It was obviously thrown together in a coffee-fueled all-nighter last night/this morning.  It has impressively high production values considering that though.  I give it an A.

C+.  Too ominous, too vague.  I don't like it.

I give you an A+ for that informative post and the overall decline in your hackery since you've returned. You're becoming a top notch poster IMHO. Smiley Carry on.
