As you know, Presidential candidate Ron Paul announced earlier this week that he would not be running for re-election to his House seat, so that he can focus on his Presidential bid.
Today, Dr. Paul enveils his first TV ad, which he is running in Iowa and New Hampshire in a bid to increase his support in those early states. Would you like to see the ad?

This is a good ad, visually compelling. It grabs your interest by spoofing a movie ad, and the production values are high. The content is good, too, highlighting Paul's strong points: standing by his convictions to do what is right rather then compromise with what's wrong.
This is a good ad, and if he runs it enough and focuses on those early states, I predict he'll see good returns from it.
UPDATE: This is a good strong position that resonates with most Americans... the most recent Rasmussen poll shows that 55% of Americans agree. But he's doing more than saying we shouldn't go further into debt, he's standing on his past record of ALWAYS having said that. It's a good, strong position.

Nice video.
ReplyDeleteMr. Paul has a strong ground game, early successful fund raisers, high profile legislative endorsements, GOP fellow candidates who literally are echoing Mr. Ron Paul's stead fast platform, supporters not only from 1 "party" but supporters who are democratic, libertarian, republican, and all others. Most importantly, all those people who feel kind of "snowed over" by all the failed campaign promises of Mr. Obama, realize now that ideology and rhetoric never supersedes substance and track record. Walk the walk and talk the talk. Mr. Ron Paul does just that.
It is on youtube.
ReplyDeleteThe ad is good. The problem is the people in the northeast...especially in Massachusetts,Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Most of these people will pay little or no attention to ads...ads of anykind! Unless you have a big 'D' after your name these people could care less about what you say in an ad. There are pockets of conservatives but their numbers don't add up to to any conservative victories.
ReplyDeleteThe early response we need is in Iowa and New Hampshire... and we will see.
ReplyDeleteThe important thing is that this is a good sign Paul is ramping up his election efforts. We'll see what difference that makes... if any.
