This is a pretty interesting site. All political commercials from 1952 to the present. It is amazing how little things have changed over the last 40 years or so..

I was watching Mad Men (Thursday/AMC) and one of their clients is the 1960 Nixon campaign. It was interesting watching them compare the Kennedy ads to their own.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

"My  opponent wants to rape your women, kill your children, and raise your taxes. I can equivocally state that I will NOT raise taxes!" (Though I won't sign a pledge, as it is too constricting)
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers
