Surreally terrible political ads

First there is Vernon Robinson for Congress. This is just fuckin’ terrible. He’s really trolling after the low IQ voters, isn’t he?
 

 
And then there is this one, for Diane Benson from Alaska. I think the message here is supposed to be “She’s got experience cleaning up messes” (and of course “She loves dogs!”) but they don’t really spell that out all that well and the ad goes from being merely ineffectual to actually being confusing for the viewer. Ultimately it gets no point across whatsoever.

The same cannot be said about the video below…
 

 
The problem I have with this one is simply that it doesn’t have the courage of its convictions. If he’d had the balls to portray the evil, grinning Wall Street magnate actually pissing on the little people, this man would be in office now (or at the very least have made a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live after a fleeting YouTube viral video success).
 
And then there is this one where the old guy forgot to take his meds, then throws a rock in the lake. What’s he supposed to be running for???
 

 
Here Mike Gravel tries gamely to explain the rock throwing video. Here he does a rap. I think he should do a duet with Ron Paul.
