Since we just can't seem to get enough of the candidates here during this campaign season
, I thought y'all might be interested in this collection of TV ads for the presidential candidates. No matter which side you're on, it's interesting and even kinda fun to look at the issues that were "big" during each campaign, not to mention the evolution of the ads themselves (the corniness of the 1952 videos has to be experienced).
There's the famous "Willie Horton" ad that sunk Dukakis, and LBJ's famous "Daisy" ad and others. See what you think. I thought the "Failure" ad from Nixon's 1968 campaign and the "FlipFlop" ad from Jimmy Carter's 1980 campaign were interesting, too, in light of today's campaign.
