What happened to Obama's parody ads? |
|
Edited on Fri Aug-01-08 06:54 PM by gulliver
Why doesn't Obama knock off McCain's ads with parodies of his own? His campaign nailed Clinton's 3am phone call ads with humor. That's what is needed now. Just because McCain beat Obama to the punch going for the fart joke crowd (humanity), that doesn't mean Obama should adopt the straight man role all of a sudden.
McCain is using self-effacing humor and getting away with everything. He has adopted Bush's complete winning model: Laugh the rubes right to the voting box. Poke fun at everything. Obama needs to use self-effacing humor too, and he needs to put paint on McCain's self-ridicule. Obama needs to make fun of the campaign McCain is running.
Obama's Achilles heel, just like Gore's and just like Kerry's, could be taking himself too seriously. "Take me seriously, or I am nothing.""

You're doing a perfect self-parody of an unconcerned, head-in-the sand, I'm-eight-and-I-got-a-computer type. Bravo!
