New Rick Santorum Ad: "Obamaville"

Here is the newest ad from the Rick Santorum campaign. Its full of scary images, scary video, scary sound effects audio, a scary voice over, etc.

It's scary, ok?



Production wise, this is very well done. The video editing of the various images, such as during a shot of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, there is an image of President Obama intercut into the picture of Ahmadinejad. There's plenty of eye candy to woo voters away from the dark side. Its a sort of end of the world motif. Not exactly cheery...

It's interesting to me, as the Santorum campaign is short on cash and seems to have their hands full trying to defeat former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney for the republican nomination. There's no tagline of, "I'm Rick Santorum and I approved this message," so, I feel pretty confident that one of his super-pacs funded this.
