By definition we, the
By definition we, the convinced, should not love Rand's ads. Ads are for the unconvinced. If DP loved the content of a Rand ad, it could well be a misdirected piece.
The first 5 million supporters of Dr. Paul are 'early adopters.' The next 10 million will require a modified approach.
He needs to....
lose the head gear at the end of the ad.
It makes him look like a mad scientist.
And what's up with the war crap?
Good start....
....and way better than the Ron Paul commercials that ran during the 2008 Primary. I love Ron and always will, but his ads were amateurish at best and a hugh waste of resources at the worst. They were out of touch with voters' interests and concerns. Rand has traction. Unless someone produces a video with him leaving a bar at at night with Tiger Woods he will soon be Senator Paul!
"What have you done for Ron Paul today"?
Hot Air covers the ad:

Interesting,
to see what the neo-cons have to say.
lol
"If he's good enough for Sarah he's good enough for me" .... o man....

Lol
I guess I like to keep my eye on what those airheads are thinking.
Yuck
Paraphrasing from the Hot Air article link above- "Who made this, the Cheney family??"
wow...
he's really playing the law and order card. Really trying to get that neo-con vote.
Genius
Pure genius. Hit them with red white and blue strong national defense to get their attention. Bring other pieces to the table after their attention has been grabbed. I am calling this strategy the "Palin Carrot".
Uuuughhhhhh...
hate it! Is this really how we win people over to liberty!?! NO! I don't think so! I wonder what Ron Paul thinks of this?
Ron Paul's campaign was "about the message."
Maybe Rand Paul's is about the win.
Ugh right back atcha...
....Smartest ad he could possibly come up with. The fact of the matter is that some (if not MOST) people could care less about liberty, so winning them over isn't the goal. However, winning their VOTE so that you can effect and support liberty-like policies in Congress is clutch. Typical Republican primary voters are all about the military, war, national defense, etc. Rand's played it about as smart as he possibly can.
If they can play on American fears to enact sickening legislation like the Patriot Act, then the reverse can be done for libertarian solutions.
well I didn't say it wasn't
the "smart" thing to do....it's just hard to watch. Of course, I hope Rand wins and then I hope he does the right things, like his Dad.
Looks Poll Driven
I bet that came right out of focus groups and polling data.
I say go for it. He already has our vote - he has to go for those that do not know him.
He must be trying to differentiate from Greyson
bump
Thanks Rhino.

"How can we justify to the unemployed and underemployed in the United States the incredible cost of maintaining a global empire?" - Dr. Ron Paul
