Dean Eats Toad

Alfred Fingulin has his commentary on advertising in Iowa. It's on Gunshow Trash, and since his permalinks are a little temperamental, I'm going to beg his indulgence and just post the whole thing:

Howard Dean looks like he ate a live toad, enjoyed it, and thinks you should too.

A stark white background highlights the candidate. It's a corporate white guy in gray business shirt and burgundy tie. Is he announcing more layoffs?

He speaks of power, of who runs America, "corporate special interests and Washington insiders..." He looks like one. "...or the American people." Now I'm confused.

His face begins filling the screen. "I'm..." and the waddles on his neck spill over his collar. Is this Jabba the Hutt? "...Howard Dean."

His face gets bigger. "My campaign doesn't just talk about change. We're empowering the American people..." Every time management says "empower" they don't and they get in your face about it.

And he gets bigger. I'm worried. More layoffs must be coming.

"...so that together we can provide health care for everyone..." He'll make it affordable by laying off hospital staff? "...and government that works for people again." No layoffs coming to his department.

"That's what's a stake on Monday. Please don't stay home, because this time it's too important."

Howard Dean wanted to get out the vote. He got me to post some more resumes on Monday.

I'm really hoping he wins in Iowa. It'll be more fun beating Dean - and especially his supporters.
