They both hated the Hillary ad. The man thought that it was cringe-inducing. He hated it. Apparently, he finds it cold and calculating. Hmmm.
She then went on to express that Hillary and Edwards went for "issue ads" in their Christmas "postcards," which she felt was the wrong way to go about it. Again, in contrast to the Huckabee ad.
They both thought the Giuliani ad was shit, which is something I think we can all agree on.
So, I was driving along pretty pissed because NPR is supposed to be liberal radio, or at least fair, and ascribing pure motives to Huckabee and falling into the storyline that Hillary is a calculating b-tch. But the kicker was that the woman doing the analysis is Anita Dunn, DEMOCRATIC consultant.
No wonder we're fucked.

Jesus. How dumb do you have to be to not hear the dogwhistles in Huckabees "non-political" ad? And I'm with you - I actually thought Edwards' ad was spot on. Aren't we supposed to be thinking about the less fortunate at this time of year?
I heard that story on the way home and had the same reaction. The Huckabee ad is "pure" alright--to my (non-Christian) ears it said f-ck you, heathen. How is it that a blatantly, in-your-face Christian ad is "not political"??? I loved the Edwards ad, and I was actually amused by the Clinton ad, which sounded to me like self-parody.
