When Will It Be 4am?
I was sure this headline on TPM was going to be a joke:
Hillary Unveils Another 3 A.M. Ad, This One On The Economy
I mean, after the last one got raked over the coals, the Clinton campaign wouldn’t pull that out again. The video clearly linked to some SNL sketch. Right?
Right?
Erlgegh.
Firstly, how many homes are foreclosing at 3am? An economic crisis usually builds over time (see: American economy for the last number of years). If Clinton is only called after the straw breaks the camel’s back, that’s not a good sign.
But let’s not leave out the bad production values! The shots of the worried parents are clearly blue-hued stock footage of daytime scenes. And check out the older man in the middle shot; he doesn’t even look perturbed, let alone exhausted because he’s been at this for hours.
Finally, listen to the horns over the ‘approval’ message. Is that the Olympics theme?
When did this start the slide into farce? I really don’t remember anymore…
