I suppose one place where I disagree with Allahpundit from Hot Air is when he says this is the first of the three “Cult of Obama” ads to employ it to a useful end. The German techno ad was funny, and I thought the McCain pump ad was very well-done. Either way you see it, we can all agree this new ad does a great job of tying politics to recognizable entertainment figures, and hits Obama hard.
