…is an ad campaign against a candidate designed to tweak his weight a good idea?
Mr. Corzine’s television commercials and Web videos feature unattractive images of Mr. Christie, sometimes shot from the side or backside, highlighting his heft, jowls and double chin.
Meanwhile, Mr. Corzine, 62, is conspicuously running in 5- and 10-kilometer races almost every weekend, as he did last Saturday and Sunday, underscoring his athleticism and readiness for the physical demands of another term — and raising doubts about Mr. Christie’s.
On Morning Joe where Corzine is often a guest and Mika is almost a health nazi they thought it was over the line. I think that kind of thing is going to turn off a lot of voters.
The Huffpost has the ad and a poll concerning it, but I think the ad has a bigger problem for democrats to wit:
didn’t pay taxes you owe
ignored ethics laws
There is some buzz on it but for myself I didn’t think that particular ad highlighted his weight but considering the Charlie Rangel vote yesterday and the acorn issues is it really a smart idea for a democratic ad to be highlighting not paying taxes and ethics laws? That is going to have ramifications all the way down the ticket.
