Is Obama Too Cool?
Here's the buzzed-about anti-Obama political ad in which Barack Obama's oppressive coolness is exposed. There's a lot about this strategy I don't understand. Is being cool a problem when you're a president? Does this ad make Obama's fans like him any less? Could Mitt Romney ever pull off Al Green?
Anyway, it's an interesting tactic, and it does call to mind the "Celebrity" ad from the last election cycle. How'd that one turn out again?
If you're a fan of the ad, let Karl Rove's Super PAC know. They're the ones behind it.
