I remember watching "Mona Lisa Smile" and these ads remind me of that movie. Some of the females were looking for husbands and even left college when they found him. I think these ads are crazy 40 years later, but I suspect that they were current during their time. Thankfully times change. I wonder if Republicans had tear build up while looking at the ads thinking "what should be the same". Those crazy emotional conservatives. LOLOLO! They are probably so depressed.
