Don’t Quit Your Day Job

Close on the heels of an earlier post about bad campaign ads, comes this gem. Starring Marcos "Daily Kos" Moulitsas and Ned Lamont. This is beyond lame. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond.

When Lamont loses he can look back on this moment and say, "That's when I lost".

By the way, this fails on a couple of levels. One, it reeks of amateurism, two, it provides visual reinforcement that people from outside of Connecticut are trying to influence the Senate race. Both are bad politically.

UPDATE: Link fixed, thanks Black Jack.

    Part of me (maybe most) hopes Lamont wins. Moonbats should represent moonbats. Joe Lieberman is far too close to mainstream America for the body politic of Connecticut.

    But I don’t think Markos is doing Lamont any favors with this amateurish political ad. You have to give him credit for cojones, though - I’d hate to have my face and reputation (such as it is) lampooned by half the blogsphere.

    I suspect that at this point, it’s rather more than half!
