just saw an aarp healthcare reform commercial.
looked pretty good.

it shows an ambulance, with sirens wailing, zipping around cars, trucks and buses trying to intercept it, while the narrator is saying don't let misleading info and fear stop healthcare reform.

hope to see a lot of these.

6. I'm pretty sure I was watching CNN and saw one.
I may have seen/heard the other one on MSNBC. Can't recall.

5. I've seen one, and heard one from the other room (screaming ambulance!)
Great ads!

10. Actually, it seemed the screaming ambulance seemed to mask the message.
Very distracting--and I think would be especially to the elderly.

11. Not to this senior it wasn't. I've seen it twice. Once on CNN and once on MSNBC.
I also received a pro health care reform post card from the AARP on Tuesday thast included a still shot from the ad. The message was clear to me.
