The new series of GE commercials seem to be an accurate depiction of the Democratic primaries ...

You know ... The ones where the guy announces he got a job with GE writing code and the audience gets stuck on talking about building apps for cats with hats or lifting the hammer.

{And it applies for whomever one supports in the contest.}

I have to say, when I see those ads I think this: what bad ads these are. They attempt to play the cards Apple plays so skillfully but they do not pull it off. They make me think of the Hudson River and the Fukushima reactors.
