New ad from Granholm out today
Another low-key ad. Not sure what to make of these, to be honest. They do grab your attention due to the fact that they are low-key, not screaming at you like conventional advertising does. Is that what they are going for? I honestly don't know. The blue jacket works better than the black- and the voice is perfect. I think the Guv missed her calling as a DJ. ;-)

Zack has a YouTube version here; for whatever reason YouTube slows this blog way down so I can't post it. Check it out.

New ad from Stabenow out also, it's available here. It basically expands on the last one.

I have a new-found appreciation for Debbie Stabenow. She was just here in GR the other day to give a short pep-talk/rally for the local troops...



... and she came across as so... real. I can't put it any better than that. Most of the time politicians seem so guarded and scripted. I understand why they have to be that way, but still... it's nice to see them as normal human beings every once in awhile.

Stabenow will be on To The Point Sunday at 10am. Wasn't that nice of Rick to stick her on in the middle of Labor Day weekend? Fortunately they put it up on the 'net- you can catch the show anytime after it airs here.
