Title: Political Commercials

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  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)
