It's supposed to start showing all over the country tomorrow. What do you think? Will it be effective?

1. Yes. If they are not careful, they will have a big legal bill.

3. I am wondering if they got the OK from George Lucas ahead of time
I was thinking the same thing you were thinking. They can't be that stupid.

4. Yeah, they featured it on Cross-fire... It really sucked.
I hope we can do better. Gezzzz, why not picture the congress as the "RunAway" bride... that analogy works too. What do they think we are all morons ?

5. I don't like it
It looks horrible and it is far too vague to make sense to the sleeping public who don't understand the issue, yet far too simple to do anything for people that do understand. Sometimes MoveOn seems so desperate to become the impotent and out of touch organization it is characterized as being by the wrong wing.

6. It needs to be remodeled right away.
The message is sound but the advertising, bad. Everyone should email them to comment on how to make this an affective advertisement.

7. I loved it
Thought it was a riot, as was the ad with the rampaging elephants.
