MoveOn.org "My Friends' Mess" ad on MSNBC. Well done!
Edited on Sun Sep-28-08 08:36 AM by whrab
McCain says, "my friends, my friends, my friends" and the likes of Rick Davis and Phil Gramm sprout up around him. It's brilliant. Well done, MoveOn! Cry Havoc, Let Loose the Dogs of War!

I live in New York, so I suspect this was a national ad on MSNBC.

Edit: title.

4. Sorry, it ends trashing the Bailout. It will be counterproductive. Yet again, Moveon FAILS.
Edited on Sun Sep-28-08 08:44 AM by cryingshame
Their ads suck and suck hard.

If they'd stuck with McCains friends angle it would have worked.

Putting the Bailout at the end will hurt Obama since a BAILOUT DEAL IS IN THE WORKS.

And having the EXPLAIN that Obama's principles are in the actual Bailout deal is exactly why MoveOn's ad sucks so very hard.

14. MoveOn has the nations pulse on this one...This bail-out is dangerous...
Edited on Sun Sep-28-08 09:58 AM by tokenlib
I understand why Obama might not like the ad...but he needs to be careful because most of the country opposes this thing...I love Obama but feel this bail-out is dangerous. I fear if McCain were to come out totally against it--he might get some political mileage out of it. Whether the bail out is necessary or not--the sale has not been made--and it is a millstone around the neck.

19. So you admit it's also an anti-Bailout ad and not just an anti-McCain ad?

18. Friends don't send friends off to die in armed conflicts based on
bogus intelligence (aka sheer stupidity) at the expense of future generations.
