"Chrysler continues to seek low-interest loans from the U.S. Energy Department to develop and produce fuel-efficient cars. The company sought $3.5 billion in such loans last year,

Sounds like a good possibility, especially with Obama running things.

We have the original Chrysler bailout back in 1977 to blame, that’s when it became expected that Government would step in and save companies that were “Too big to fail.”

Good commercial and great message!

They screwed their investors. I would not touch a Chrysler. And since 1980 I’ve owned:
1980 Dodge D50 pickup
84 Plymouth Reliant Station Wagon
87 Plymouth Reliant
88 Dodge Omni
1995 Lebaron convertible
2001 Chrysler 300m

I’m driving the 300 into the ground right now on my 100 mile commute. Love the car, even at 160,000 miles it is like new, except it could use shocks, but I’m done with Chrysler and GM, for obvious reasons.

They lost a lifelong customer - for good.

I like the new Fords and am considering a Fusion to replace the 300M when the wheels fall off.

Eastwood is just another Hollywierdo and former mayor of leftist California town Carmel.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Main article: Clint Eastwood

Actor and director Clint Eastwood has long shown an interest in politics. He was elected mayor in April 1986 of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California and in 2001, he was appointed to the California State Park and Recreation Commission by Governor Gray Davis.[1]

At times, he has supported Democrats in California, such as the liberal and environmentally concerned Representative Sam Farr in 2002. Eastwood contributed $1,000 to Farr’s successful re-election campaign that year and on May 23, 2003, he hosted a $5,000-per-ticket fundraiser for California’s Democratic governor, Gray Davis.[6] Later that year, Eastwood offered to film a commercial in support of the embattled governor,[7] and in 2001, the star visited Davis’ office to support an alternative energy bill written by another Democrat, California State Assemblyman Fred Keeley.

This ad brought to you be America's version of Italian authoritarian government and the new leader

It is just Hollywood's slick attempts at manipulating the emotions of a politically uninvigorated mass. Slick emotional sentiment and visuals coupled with known voice, face and perceived allegiance. Harry and Linda Bloodworth-Thomason did this with Slick Willie and WWOTW back before the 92 election humanizing both of them and bringing them into your living room via 60 Minutes...

Clint effed up bad on this one. I doubt I'll ever spend any of my money watching any more of his stuff again. Apparently he's senile, stupid, or just plain both. As for Chrysler (and GM) they can choke on their vehicles - never again.
