Check out the Republican party’s new, anti-abortion wedding dress ad (Rick Scott)

Check out the Republican party’s new, anti-abortion wedding dress ad

it's got way more thumbs down than thumbs up

Get it? See how clever? Young women “try on” these dull, anti-women candidates (“the Scott Walker,” “the Rick Scott,” “the Rick Snyder”) like dreamy outfits, because, well, thinking is hard and issues are stupid and chicks love wedding crap and, well, that’s all you broads really understand, right? Dress-up? Thought so. Now pipe down and go make the GOP a sandwich.

--------------------

Why, just yesterday, a federal appeals court sided with Texas Republicans over the state’s brutal, sweeping anti-abortion law, thus forcing 13 women’s health clinics to immediately close and making Texas one of the most misogynistic states in the land, next to maybe Alabama. No more abortions for you, you hysterical, sex-enjoying, wedding dress-loving sluts!

They're all exactly the same except for the names. In my State, Pennsylvania, it's for Tom Corbett against Tom Wolf.

I almost thought it was a kind of catchy ad idea - for FLORIDA. But being from PA, the PA one makes me want to vomit. And it is SO off base that anyone who is paying the slightest bit of attention will know that it makes no sense and bears no resemblance whatever to the actual candidates. (Tom Wolf the one who is "outdated"? Really? LOL.)

Of course, this ad is NOT aimed at the people who have a clue what's going on. Comparing candidates to wedding dresses? Ugh.

They're exactly the same except for the names, so they're bound to be off base for at least some of the candidates. I guess they thought they were saving money by doing it this way.
