Errol Morris's People in the Middle for Obama
Errol Morris has a new blog post about "real people" campaign ads, which covers the history of political ads that use non-actors from a 1952 Eisenhower ad to Morris's new "People in the Middle for Obama" campaign in 2008. I like these better than his "Switch" ads for Kerry in 2004, as they have a more positive message. ("I like Obama," rather than "I don't like Bush.")

I was in a Panera (chain restaurant) with free wi-fi today, and for reasons that remain mysterious to me, their nanny filter blocked this post as "inappropriate."
maybe it's a homophobic filter reacting to 'i don't like bush.'
flea, you amuze me.
