I'll try to do better.
Just needed to get this off my chest real quick. Now that the campaign season is over and the chips have fallen... I must say that as heinous a person as Meg Whitman turned out to be and regardless of that fact that they were not all true her campaign's anti Jerry Brown TV ads were stunningly beautiful.
One came on while I was in the kitchen and my husband paused the ad so that when I came back into the living room I could see it from the beginning.
The art direction is brilliant. The lifetime of politics legacy of failure spot especially so. It has a strong concept--using the medium of a particular era to show Jerry Brown in each decade. first a record on a turntable, then newspapers, then TV, then the internet all cycling back to the record on the turntable. Brilliant.
I include some screenshots below:
Her other ad about Jerry Brown as Mayor of Oakland is just as stunning
