Though, it might be a bit long...

Make it longer with more comparisons

[wintertime]

Wouldn't it be nice for a change if the Republicans drop and October surprise on Obama.

Hm?....Like proving he was not a natural born citizen?

the ad is too long - it should be in three sections for TV not the web. The facts are correct, but who will see it? Only the already leaning to republican voter. Got to get the message to the sick of Obambi voters of 2008.

This is the extended version of the ad. There is a 60 sec. version as well and I expect to see that hit the airwaves during or right after the Dem convention.

Or Maxwell Smart saying, “would you believe....7 years?”

Yes, this is excellent. Same old snake oil from four years ago.

He’s so lazy and incompetent that he can’t even come up with new lies.

[Sunshine Sister]

What else is there to say but wow?

[Mamzelle]

Sharp as a razor—

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Is this internet only or will they actually run it in battleground states?

Apparently, Obama hasn’t hired any new speech writers.

Well I was trying to be a little kind to the old guy. I respect him for his service to our country.

Well said!

Senator McCain's bid for the Presidency was a very small part of his service to his country.

Bump

[rmccullo]

THAT’s a good ad!

[ilovesarah2012]

Obama is an idiot!

You must be one of the people who does not use a remote during commercials - LOL...I'm joking.

I think the ad is very strong, but 30 seconds is called Elevator speech in business for a reason - it is how long people will listen.

Point taken, however as a former radio broadcaster I can tell you that while a commercial that is brief, hard hitting and to the point is best, the flip side is that if the message is powerful, affects the listener/viewer in a personal way and grabs their attention, you can get away with a 60 second spot, and if the product or message is really good, perhaps even a 2 minute mini 'infomercial'.

Now if I were involved in the Romney & Ryan campaign, I would run a series of commercials showing a bunch of awaiting passengers in an airport watching a pseudo-0bama ad that was shrieking about 'Romney and Bain Capital, BAD guys, buyin' up businesses, firing workers, corporate raiders, blah-blah-blah' and then cut to a black screen with white block letters stating: 'Bain Capital, created Staples, 1,575 stores in the U.S. alone, 24.5 billion in revenue in 2010, nearly 100,000 employees' followed by "Mr 0bama, tell your people to stop lying about Mitt Romney"

Then for the icing on the cake, show those same waiting passengers being groped and felt up by TSA goons, freeze the frame and a strong voice over "and THAT is going to stop under a Romney Administration, the civil rights of Americans will once again be upheld under the law."

That's what I would call a 'twofer' in a campaign ad.

Wow.
