Great Moments In Campaign Advertising

Republican Robert Dold is running for congress in Illinois's suburban 10th district against Democrat opponent Dan Seals. Dold may well win too--especially after Seals endorsed him! Well, some seals...

Good thing I wasn't drinking anything. It might have come out my nose! "It's "Dold" with a "D" not an "E.""

I like to nominate the actor as a replacement for the--wait for it--presidential seal.

As someone who actually lives in the 10th district, I can't believe how lame both campaigns are. The humor in this cuts a sharp second to Seals, "Dold is too extreme" ad. For those who are unaware, Seals and Dold are in heated competition to see who can be the bigger stereotypical, mundane, suburbany bore.
