"Wolves" ad no longer? on RNC site, anyone have a link?
I saw "Eagles," and I get the idea, but want to see the RNC ad.

I hear it's quite lame.

Links?

I have RealPlayer and Windows MP.

Thanks!

2. www.georgewbush.com
I just saw it half an hour ago there; it was on the front page.

I don't know whether to laugh or vomit after seeing it. At least the wolves weren't wearing turbans!

6. It didn't even keep my attention!
That's supposed to scare me?

I remember the little girl with the daisy.

I was 12. That scared the shit out of me... and everyone else in America!

28. I've been thinking Kerry should run some sort of "Daisy Ad"
during the World Series or The Apprentice or something a lot of people watch.

7. weak!
And the speaker, with the British accent, come on, is that supposed to lend it an "international flavor"?

19. It sounds like somebody imitating Madonna's new fake Brit accent
you know, the one she's had since marrying Guy Ritchie, that isn't quite right. . .

For the like of me I don't get the point of the accent. Of course, the whole thing seems SERIOUSLY LAME to me.

8. Just watched it.
I saw some beautiful footage of the type of wilderness and wildlife that Bush will destroy with his environmental policies.

I don't think wolves have the menacing connotation in our society that the admaker thinks they do.

23. Anytime... but now I can't watch it =/
Thx for the welcome!

Now I need one that I can watch on 56k... streaming video doesn't work very well for that. If anybody could upload the video somewhere I'd appreciate it. I wanna see the cute wolves! =p

15. What is all the commotion about?
Take a look at the "looking for those WMDs ad" (out today and on the moveonpac.org site) if you want to see an effective ad.

16. Don't understand all the fuss, it's so lame
I enjoyed looking at the pretty wolves but seems like a major waste of money on their part. Didn't make me feel scared, I was enjoying the scenery :-) .

18. Have a GREAT idea for a political cartoon!
Wish I could draw at least somewhat coherently.. WOnder how many cartoonists will have an elephant in a wolf mask, OR a Little Red Riding Hood theme.. with the Wolf wearing an elephant costume.

THey've outdone themselves with this stupid ad!

20. Ashcroft had the ad removed - it featured indecently nude wolves
They're editing the add now, putting sheets on those shocking exhibitionist naked wolves who are an affront to public decency.

Edited on Fri Oct-22-04 06:41 PM by DemMother
they get up at the end of the ad, they look the way my dog does when she hears someone opening the refrigerator door. Curious, hopeful that there might be a treat...not as if she's masterminding the next terrorist attack.

37. They would have us believe focus groups loved it.
That's why they held it back until the end.

That story is even more lame than the ad itself.

I say:
