New Obama Ad: "The Cynics In Washington Roll Their Eyes"

By Eric Kleefeld - September 19, 2007, 10:49AM

Barack Obama promotes his outsider image in his latest TV ad in Iowa:

"Every time I speak about my hope for America, the cynics in Washington roll their eyes," he says. "You see, they don't believe we can actually change politics and bring an end to decades of division and deadlock. They don't believe we can limit the power of lobbyists who block our progress, or that we can trust the American people with the truth."

"And that’s why we face the same problems and hear the same promises every four years."

1. That was beautiful!

Even a cynic like me starts to believe again when I hear him speak. Gobama! Hope isn't a four letter word!

2. Excellent ad..."Change you can believe in"

Effectively addresses the experience issue.

Nice overall tone as well: "I'm asking you to believe not just in my ability to bring about change, I'm asking you to believe in yours."
