Obama "Hands" commercial just aired on Olympics - Holy crap is that a good ad
Wow.

Amazing. The production value alone leaves all of McCain's negative shit in the dust. The positive message is awesome. Top-notch stuff. I'm glad my donations are going to THAT!

(I'm the most cynical dick on the planet, so it takes a lot for me to praise a political ad)

1. It really is a classy ad.
It fits right in with the spirit of the Olympics, too.

And it *really* looks great in HD!

7. The musical treatments in that ad are A+.
Very "progressive", in terms of forward looking... er...sounding.

13. Another great thing about that ad...
Edited on Tue Aug-12-08 10:42 PM by Diamonique
... while it fits with the spirit of the Olympics, it also fits with the spirit of his campaign. From the very beginning he has saiD "yes we can". It's always been about what *we* can do to help our country. This ad says the same thing... the workers of America can turn their skills to the new technologies that will help our country. YES WE CAN!

14. I serously thought that the new McCain ad was a parody when I first saw it...
It's that bad. Hey McCain, didn't you hear: Play time is OVER!

15. I haven't seen it yet but if it any of their
previous commercials are an indication....the commercials look like they are made by 5th graders.
