This RNC Vid . . .

is brought to you by Mary Shelley.

. . . and Hot Air, of course, where AllahP remarks:

The tone’s starkly different but this actually has something in common with that DNC abortion from this morning: Both ads are designed to introduce the buzzwords they want to dominate the conversation on health care this month. Incredibly, with voters nervous about the cost and quality of ObamaCare, the left’s putting its chips on “mobs,” “extremists,” and “extremist mobs.” The GOP, rather more shrewdly, is betting on “experiment” and “government takeover.” For once, I like our odds.

It’s well organized too, ticking off a few of The One’s greatest policy hits as a reason not to trust him this time. The bad news? The music’s hokey and melodramatic, but then it wouldn’t be an RNC ad if it wasn’t. The good news? The line about “desperate photo ops” made me laugh.

Yeah; I used the unforgiveable spell quoted AllahP’s entire entry. If he were my secret crush Jim Treacher, he’d probably spank me for it, which would, of course, be way cool.

Suffice it to say that there are tons of bitchin’ videos on Hot Air today—even more than usual—and you should go over and then watch them, and then click on their ads, and then send money to the site’s owner, Ms. Michelle “Illegals Are Icky” Malkin, explaining that Hot Air lights up your life and gives you hope to carry on. And stuff.

And the RNC ad is over the top, but that is, indeed, how they like to play it. Sigh. Certainly, it’s true, though I could have done without the lightning and whatnot.

First of all, I dig the fact that I can comment on your website. I never have managed to gather enough cool points for the privilege on HotAir.
Second, yeah, the clip is over the top. Unfortunately, this indicates that the RNC understands that all arguments have to be reduced to crayon level.
Alas, my concept of budgeting, gazinta==gazouta, never receives that sort of attention.
