Just wondering ...

How about this for a campaign ad.

(I was considering doing it myself and submitting it to the campaign so I could get some of that millions in campaign contributions, so I could retire early; but alas, I completely lack the skill-set to put it together ... Just kidding!)

Picture: Footage of President Obama's 2008 campaign promises with a voice-over saying "This is what you said you wanted - cutting to graphics of opinion polling - and "This is what the experts said about my plan" - cutting to graphics of economic experts saying it would work. (with soundtracking of cheering crowds)

Then, darkened footage showing the House and Senate gop voting records, with the voice-overs and graphics of gopers stating their intent to obstruct, e.g., "we can't go for this because it'll give Obama a victory."

How effective do you think that kind of ad would be?
