If you haven't see Carly Fiorina's ad, be warned

[ProSense]

Video

OMG!

:rofl:


The comments at You Tube are hilarious.

:rofl:

[Quantess]

1. The funniest, most absurd part begins at about 2:40

[phasma ex machina]

8. +1 Demonic sheep. LOL. Kos also offers pithy comments. ROTFL.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

19. she got fired from HP CEO job

[KingFlorez]

2. That was like a parody ad

And what was with that sheep chewing? This certainly does not make Fiorina look like a good choice for office. I wonder what she'll come up with for Boxer?

[Cha]

28. You're exactly right..it makes

carly look like she has the loose screw. I'm sure that's more than a coincidence.

[babylonsister]

3. I think Rachel is covering this now. FCINO? Oye! nt

[backscatter712]

36. Doesn't "FCINO" just roll off the old tongue? n/t

[napi21]

4. I don't know who her advisor is, but they're not doing a good job!

[rurallib]

16. "bout as good as they did for her at HP.

[burning rain]

5. k & r. I hope California Republicans nominate that knucklehead.

In these bad economic times her career background is a liability like Corzine's or Giannoulias'.

[cascadiance]

21. Her career at HP was fiscally STUPID, not conservative (though some might equivalence those)

I remember first hand when my company used to have deals with HP to use our music software on their older portable devices and computers, and how in a matter of days of "outsourcing" what traditionally has been very well respected HP manufacturing expertise to Apple by licensing its Ipod to work on Windows (well before the Windows port of Itunes was available), and making a nightmare for customers who saw the future completely screw them with their HP investments in portables and music players.

Apple may have had a decent Ipod device along with Itunes, and I do like them from APPLE, but HP licensing it was a pretty stupid move, and you can tell that the "IPAQ" didn't last too long did it. That' what you get when you promoted someone like her who was a paper pusher at HP in to what traditionally was a CEO position by someone there who was strongly familiar with HP's manufacturing expertise, and not making stupid moves like this.

In addition to pissing off a lot of her customers and her own employees that had to deal with this mess, it also pissed off and alienated many of HP's partner companies who were working with them prior to this deal.

This should give one a vision of what kind of future she has planned for California or America (if she somehow goes to a federal position from there), where she values style rather than substance, and making stupid deals to in effect outsource our core strengths because she doesn't understand what she's giving away and is too motivated by the greed of "quick rewards" from "deals".

6. smh.....n/t

[Staph]

7. "Purity. Piety. Our fiscal conversative leaders."

And then a field of sheep!

:rofl:

Do they have any sort of editor with a three-digit IQ or a high school education?

[chollybocker]

9. Wow!!!

That's got to be the most cringe-inducing video ever in the history of the intertubes.

I hope she pays a fortune for it.

[bleever]

10. Here's a good one from the youtube comments:

"::slowclap::

You idiots should have at least had the sense to disable commenting on such a stupid video. Carly, fire your consultants. If this is what they're bringing to the table, Campbell is going to kick your butt."

[bleever]

11. Also:

"This ad is really unfair to demon sheep "

[Armstead]

12. I hope she keeps the same ad team if she wins the primary

[thatsrightimirish]

13. I thought nothing could top Cornyn's " Big John" commercial

Thankfully and hilariously I am wrong. You can actually see the arms inside the puppets. At 2:35 you can clearly see a man in a blue shirt in the background. Historically awful.

[Jennicut]

14. I am seriously wondering what kind of drugs she had to be on to approve that.

Demonic sheep. Just wow.

15. more hilarity...

Is the sheep talking?? What's with the pigs? WHAT ARE THE POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS OF THE FARM ANIMALS? And why is the wolf wearing shoes? I have many questions.



hahahahahaha !

[rurallib]

17. Hope we see more like this when the corporate coffers open up

Do you have a link for youtube - I can't find it. Has it been pulled already, maybe?
Baaaai

20. Pigs! Sheep! Guy in creepy outfit with LED eyes!

Yes, Carly, calling potential constituents sheep is a great move. Keep it up.

[lumberjack_jeff]

22. She sat through too many indie film festivals back in the day.

Don't bogart the blotter paper, Carly.

23. Carly Fiorina Releases Rare Psychedelic Attack Ad - Time

http://swampland.blogs.time.com/2010/02/03/carly-fiorina-releases-rare-psychadelic-attack-ad/

The best way to view California Senate Candidate Carly Fiorina's awesomely bizarre new primary campaign ad--which includes shots of an alien robot sheep, or something--is by pressing play on your cassette tape of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon just as you click play on YouTube.

The coolest part of the whole thing is that Fiorina is positing fiscal conservatives as sheep, which is a bit like Barack Obama running a spot that posits liberals as leeches or lizards. Also, is it weird that the ad never shows Fiorina's face? Is it better that voters know their candidates by the backs of their heads? More please, more.

ALSO: I must state the obvious: The odd genius of the ad is that it is so weird that you will click on it online, and bloggers like me will link to it. The message is delivered.

24. how could someone so brilliant run hp so poorly?

[Canuckistanian]

25. I didn't know Liberty U. even had a video department.

And they seem to like animals. A lot.

27. Wow! That went on way too long..and had

way too many sheep and pigs in it.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

[Bitwit1234]

29. I thought Arnold was governor.

when did this guy take over.

[Bitwit1234]

30. Forgot to add - wasn't she fired by HP???

[steve2470]

31. yes nt

[Brother Buzz]

32. It's an anti-Fiorina ad, no?

:shrug:

[backscatter712]

34. Made by Carly Fiorina's campaign!

:rofl:

[steve2470]

33. Fred Davis gets all the credit....

Fred Davis, the Fiorina team creative director -- a guy known for busting the rules in political ads -- gets the credit on this one. Whoa.

[backscatter712]

35. Kos was right - Fiorina's team was on acid when they came up with this... n/t

[JTFrog]

37. I can't help but imagine William Shattner doing the narration.

:rofl:

[RFKHumphreyObama]

38. How lame

The next Senator from California? Carlyfornia's dreaming!

[Cha]

39. Steve Benen's take..

"* And in California, Senate hopeful Carly Fiorina (R) released a new web video late yesterday, going after her primary opponent, former Rep. Tom Campbell, as a FCINO (fiscal conservative in name only). It features some kind of demonic sheep/man, and is among the strangest ads for a major office I've ever seen."

http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/

[Retrograde]

40. I kinda wish I were a Republican

just so I could vote for Campbell in the primary: this ad claims he's sensible about the need to increase taxes if you're going to keep up spending and programs (in CA, the Democrats run open primaries, but the Repubs limit them to registered party members. At least that's how they did it last time.)

Actually, this ad is a good example of the qualities that made HP the company it was when Carly ran it - after she finished running Lucent into the ground.

[chemenger]

41. This 'Ad' might hint at why she ran HP into the ground.

n/t

[AspenRose]

42. OK, I just about lost it when I saw the old-school-Cylon-wolf in sheep's clothing

Please tell me that wasn't for real.

:rofl:

[high density]

44. did a liberal make that ad?

I mean it's so bad, Fiorina can't possibly think it's helping her?! LOL

[TwilightGardener]

45. Especially love the last minute or so, with the red-eyed satanic "sheep"...

:wtf: :rofl:

[AspenRose]

46. Kick because it's so damn funny!
