The Worst Political Ad I’ve Ever Seen

Congratulations to former Pennsylvania Senator and Presidential Hopeful Rick Santorum!

His campaign has managed to produce the worst 30 second spot I’ve seen in my life. In it, a supposed Mitt Romney lookalike uses a paintball gun to fire shots of mud at Santorum–all of which miss their target.  It’s title?  Absolutely terrible: “Rombo.”

(If you’re unable to see the dreck embedded above, please click here to watch it.)

This is the kind of imagery I expect to see in a local race for Congress–not for a Presidential hopeful.  A candidate with a message as strong as Santorum’s doesn’t need his campaign to stoop to poorly produced spots.   Rick Santorum is a solid conservative.  This kind of ad is poor advice from his campaign and they’re not serving him well with this commercial.

I’ve no problem with the substance of the ad–he can go after Romney all he wants to and draw what ever distinction he thinks is appropriate.  The imagery is just bush league, though…and the production value isn’t all that impressive, either.

This is one of the worst ads I’ve seen in a long, long time.   Downright embarrassing.
