Don't mess with the Big Bird

Sesame Street asked for this ad to be taken down so don't know how long it's going to stay live. And the tragically jaded cool kids of the campaign media were all, look at Obama jump the shark. But I thought it was a clever ad. Made me smile.



Probably would be more effective if the Obama administration had managed put a few more of those fat cat banksters in jail. Or at least hauled their sorry asses to court. But still a good ad.

On a related note, Rmoney is doing a campaign stop in Asheville, NC this week. In a bit of exquisite cosmic synchronicity, the venue cancelled a Sesame Street Live performance that was supposed to playing there at the same time. They say it was cancelled long before because, slow ticket sales. Maybe that's true, but it's still an odd and amusing coincidence. Feels like a subliminal message from the universe.
