End gag kinda reminds me of the moon from Mighty Boosh.
oh sweet people. Demowife, i have no illogic. seriously: i never once said the kids wrote their own script. i said they were being used by rich out of touch marin county elitist 1%'ers in the ad industry who shoved it into their hands and said "sing this," thereby exploiting the innocents for apparent gain. does no one understand sarcasm these days? really--what eleven year old do you know cares about what happens to our debt with china? answer: none. advertising does not care who is funding what. they care if the ad is good or bad. and this AD IS BAD. how exactly is a black and white ad with kids provocative? go back and see "vote as if your life depended on it," and you'll see what a provocative ad is.
if you want to blame anyone for getting it pulled, blame people in advertising who have high standards over what they do. believe it or not, we were the loudest complainers. not the romney supports. this ad sucks because it panders, it's cheap and yes, it is exploitive of kids, which is never a great idea. ever ever ever. And yo know what? we would have done the same thing if romney did this, or ron paul or ralph nader, or J freaking F K or Ronald Freaking Reagan. . do you UNDERSTAND? this is not about the message of the ad. this is about the ad itself and everything wrong it represents. if you can't explain to me why i should vote for your candidate without using innocent ten year olds, then you should go back to the drawing board. if you do not understand why this is exploitive, you should think about it some more. these kids can't vote-- they are the victims of both sides, presently, and they don't even understand that. and to use them as if they're a mouth piece for either side, is just plain sucks. find some more compelling and adult reasons and god forbid, some reasons without a polemic argument attached, and then we'll be impressed? otherwise? THIS AD SUCKS IN AN APOLITICAL WAY. MY NAME IS KIDSLEEPY AND I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE.
yand just remember this is an advertising site where we evaluate ads of all kinds based on whether they are effective. and if you really believe! these children aren't being used by grown ups who gave them sheet music and scripts to learn and sing, then you have been drinking the wrong kool aid. seriously, how, many ten year olds do you know who are obsessed with our debt to china, and the 1%? really-- put on your objective glasses and ask if this is an effective ad. there may be 50% voting for obama but that doesn't answer the question. which is why we answered it for you. this ad sucks, and it would have sucks if FDR ran it, or Reagan or Clinton or anyone else.
