a political advertisement opens on television.

a political advertisement opens on television.

It is in blue. Talks about improving government and fighting for Virginians.

Show the opponent, in red. Wants to raises taxes for everyone. Hates Virginia or whatever.

Back to the candidate. Back to blue. "Independent voice for Virginia"

You'd be forgiven for thinking this was a Democrat's advertisement, as was clearly the intention.

This is an ad for Barbara Comstock, a woman who once proudly claimed she helped repeal the ACA. This is a woman who is against abortion (Save for bullshit exceptions), is pro the keystone ppeline, and is against net neutrality.

She's going to lose. And her seat is going to a Democrat. And so goes the House.

  1. Too clever by half. I mean, it's not on the level of "I'm not a witch", but it's somewhere in the same territory. If your emotional message is "vote blue", then you're doomed. No (R) is ever going to outblue a (D).

  2. "Congratulations. You played yourself."
