Is this Joe Miller's new ad? You have GOT to be kidding me!



 
Three questions:

  • Was this ad put together by grade school children?
  • Has Christine O'Donnell seen this?
  • Am I high right now?
I understand that Miller and his campaign might be having a very visible nervous breakdown, but surely there was somebody on staff who could see how completely childish and pathetic this ad would look to the Alaska voters.  Wasn't there?

I guess not.

Don't forget to vote for the grown up Alaska!  Because lord knows we need one!

  8. This ad is supposed to be aimed at ALASKAN voters, right?

    Do the Miller campaign strategists really think everyone in Alaska has been avidly following the "I am not a witch" saga of Christine O'Donnell?

    Geez, a good percentage of Alaska voters probably have no idea where Delaware is on a map, or even that there IS someplace called Delaware.

    Then again, maybe Joe Miller thinks the election will be held on October 31st...

    His poll numbers are totally tanking. McAdams is ahead by 6 points and the write in only gained a very small percentage.

    What's really funny about this ad is that to most Alaskans, "she who must not be named" refers to his mentor, Sarah Palin. Get with the program, Joe. If you insist on dodging your own record while running negative and not necessarily truthful ads about your opponent, at least use euphemisms that we can recognize. Then, why don't you provide us with a well-articulated plan somewhere as to how you are going to fix this mess instead of just criticizing what others are doing?

    Joe apparently needs to go back to grade school and practice reciting daily current events because he is out-of-the-loop. McAdams is gaining on both Lisa and Joe. Poor Joe, he doesn't even know he is failing big time.

    Well, Gryphen, I just watch Chris Matthews salivate all over the idea of Sarah running for President in 2012. He already handed her the first three important primaries: Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, so I guess they had better start printing the posters and stamping out the buttons.

    Karl Rove doesn't think that Sarah has the "gravitas" to run. Her reality show is not a recommendation. She would rather be out there in Alaska than in any old stuffy political office.

    So, Gryphen, it's finally time to take one for your country. We cannot let Chris Matthews get his wet dream. He is already energized at the thought of a Palin candidacy and presidency. Please, if you have any card left to play, any people who still need a couple of drinks, anything, we're counting on you to save the USA!

    Ironically, while watching the Senatorial debate last night on KAKM, all I could think was how scary Joe Miller looked. I mean, seriously, without snark, if I saw him outside my house, I'd be keeping a close eye on him, with thoughts of keeping the police on speed-dial. He is pale, greasy, unkempt, has deep bags under his eyes this week, and everything about him just emanates extreme stress and anger. He honestly looks like a bit of a sociopath. I'm sure some of it is knowing that he probably IS one, but still.... can't somebody clean him up? There's some obvious emotional instability going on there. And it only gets exacerbated when he opens his mouth.
