I view it as more of a shot at society. Pete is praised constantly for his intelligence. Booker barely get a mention even though he is extremely bright and is a very deep person.

I could easily back Booker. Can’t begin to tell you how much I like him. He didn’t come in prepared to run a relentless and passionate campaign appealing to the masses.

I'm increasingly disappointed with Cory Booker, my (once) #2 choice.

What did Booker have to do with it?

8. This was made by a super PAC - not associated with his campaign.

That said, Booker has shown no qualms about going on the attack in debates.

10. A bad pattern. If this ad existed in isolation, I could easily blow it off.

But...

And I'm someone who was very torn between Biden and Booker at the beginning of this election season.

11. Agree. I want to like Booker but would prefer fewer 'zingers' aimed at other potential candidates.

Focus on policy - honestly. It's not hard and imo it's the best way to win support.

...it's negative on the media and punditry (which plenty of folks here concur with).

That said, it won't get him any more votes.

It's just an ad that shows similarities in resumes and ends with a contrast. Pretty mild stuff.

17. Booker's Super PAC has a very bizarre complex against Buttigieg. Not a good look.

I do not find it even that negative, it is just a 'hey look at me' advert
