I think it was cool. Definitely not the run of the mill campaign ad. It certainly leveraged itself.

It simply confirmed that she’s nuts (not that everyone at HP didn’t already know).
Personally, I thought it hilarious and look at the reaction it’s getting. I’d say it was accidentally a hit.
memetics bump :]
As long as the ad is seen as over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek it is a great ad.
Where is the real freaking Sheep video? Some link had some BS to make them their home page to see it.
When the other side goes beserk, you know you have hit it on the nose.
The ad is mildly amusing (I don’t know whether its intentional or not). The real issue is Campbell’s liberalism. If the choice was just her versus him and they had an equal chance of being elected, I’d pick her because he is a flaming fiscal liberal. Having said that, he may be much more electable, in which case I’d choose him over Comrade Boxer. Of course, the last time I said that was an argument in favor of voting for Schwarzeneger over McClintock and that was one of the worst judgment calls I’ve ever made. I guess I’m as confused as the demon sheep at this point . . . . .
I had to watch it just to see what the buzz was all about. I found it mildly humorous and got its point across, though a bit over the top at the end. Beats the standard, run of the mill add.
The message is legitimate, but it looks like the weirdness of the ad will overshadow the message.
Red on red.
