Bush campaign website has a new ad posted. Recent ads have been positive and focused on his agenda. This one is silly and makes Kerry look foolish. Check it out at georgewbush.com. Its called wndsurfing and has pictures of Kerry windsurfing while the narrator talks about his Iragi flip flops. Its kinda effective. I think the real purpose was to get his yuppie windsurfing footage out just as much as it is to talk flip flops.

I like it even more in contrast with the swift ad. Kinda of a hit em high, hit em low approach. One is somber, historical, serious. The other comical, current and somewhat whimsical.

I like it!

I still want to see more plastered on TV screens about the France meetings. But this is pretty funny...

Oh, man - the windsurfer was good, but if you have time, watch the Minnesota Bus Trip, too - he's so natural on these smaller events and so personable.

But, the best clip of all is HBO's Nine Innings from Ground Zero.

Beautiful!
