Eric's Daily Waste of Time, Part XVII

So now I have a Tumblr? My new Internet strategy is to accumulate so many 2.0ish sites to cycle through that by the time I've checked them all, there's new content back at the first one. And I'll never have to leave my computer again. Genius!

Or maybe not.

The McCain Democrats
I find this interesting. A lot of play this cycle has been given to “Obama Republicans,” but what about people who voted for Kerry in 2004 but sided for McCain in 2008? Discount Alaska and Arizona — some people always root for the home team. But what about the rest? What can be inferred from them?

The “Eisenhower Answers America” ads, conceived and created by Madison Avenue advertising executive Rosser Reeves of Ted Bates and Company, were as bold in conception as they were simple in execution. The campaign created forty “spot ads,” each consisting of a question from an ordinary voter and a response from the candidate. The answers were filmed first, in a midtown Manhattan studio, with General Eisenhower reading off of cue cards. The questions were filmed later, read by tourists who were scouted in front of Radio City Music Hall. Eisenhower is filmed in the elevated position; the questioners all look up at him, establishing a personal connection but also keeping him in the position of the hero.

This is amazing. I never really watched this, but the image of the grown up kid in the background makes me sad.

Wow, what a douche move. That’s the only insightful commentary I have about that.

Seconded.
