Not Gonna Work

These people who make these are crazy.

Terrific !

nothing indirect about this one!

Brilliant!

"O" for overrated.

abso-frigging-lutely brilliant.

Funny and true--what more can you ask?

my only criticism would be that the average american won't know the etch a sketch comment and I would have had that in quotes with the name of the advisor who said it next to it. Otherwise fantastic!

I hope at least some part of it makes it to prime time TV.

I very happily kick and rec.

LOL

It's superb. The pacing is great, the premise or framework (movie trailer) is wonderful. It doesn't have a bunch of hokey rapid cut black & white shots like a machine gun with a sledge hammer soundtrack and an angry announcer. The voiceover is deep, but sounds a little friendly and ever so slightly tongue in cheek, in keeping with the premise. Makes memorable points.

Well Done, Team Obama!

Will peed a little.

Someone had fun making this :-D

Of the many things I love about Obama, his swag is up near the top of it.

Bring it dog boy and rapist bud! Tell it like it is.

the Republicans are. Plastic people. Poured from molds.

and rec in spirit!

on edit- aw shit...76 now.... a'ight den!

I loved it.

The other day I visited a naturalization ceremony in Los Angeles. Guess who was featured on the central poster at the Republican voter registration table, held up high for all to see.

Abraham Lincoln? No.

George W. Bush? No.

Ronald Reagan? No.

MARTIN LUTHER KING. Yes.

They were boasting that Martin Luther King was a registered Republican.

That really beats the cake. What nerve.

Frankly, it made me mad.

Martin Luther King was a Republican -- back in the days when the haters in the South were Southern Democrats. Nixon's Southern Strategy changed all that.

I wish that the racist Southern Republicans of our time could have seen that Republican bunch at the naturalization ceremony.

So, this ad predicts precisely what will happen. It's about money and power. The "conservative" ideology is just a sop to draw in the gullible.

Worth the time!

I'm pretty sure that was not created by the Romney campaign.

I'm pretty sure you're right.

I worry it may be taking some liberties in the way it's presented, but I'm just a re-publisher here (I put it on FB).

It's really well done, though.

Even in parody, I don't like having one of my favorite musical works associated with the MittWit.

LOL!

LOVE it!

For "Not Gonna' Work."

Fucking genius!

It does not end with Obama saying I approve this message. Someone else did it. Who? MoveOn.org?

Whoever did it, I approve it!

RATED N( Not Gonna Work)

Romney Advisers think he's as Distant as his Money and his Tax Returns.

ROMNEY'S TAX RETURNS ARE HIDING BEHIND A STACK OF PANCAKES..

whatever it was."


Excellent work on this ad!

that was really good

Didn't read through all the replies yet...so if you haven't read the Preview Sceen...read it...it's freaking hilarious.

So clever and so right on target!

Love this!!!

I would lol if they could get this in a real theatre.

Excellent! That's all that should be said!

nice touch.

As a liberal it's funny. I get it's a mock movie preview. But adverts are getting more and more made for shock content right down to dramatic music and effects with virtually no focus on issues. Does anyone have an overview of what percentage is negative ads? Must be more than 50% now?

I love it.

The ad was silly. It tries to say too much too quickly. The Etch-A-Sketch reference fails to tie it to Romney's adviser and, without context, most of the other sound bites were lost in the background noise. Right-wingnuts already think the NY Times is a liberal tool so the ad plays right into their suspicions by repeatedly citing to it. Yet another garbled message from my fellow Democrats. Keep this up and one of the greatest presidents in history will be replaced by Mitt Romney.

And they are not trying to appeal to the braindead dittoheads who are going to vote for Mitt just because Rush told them to. This ad is for "thinking" people who need a nudge in the left direction.
