Date: September 16, 2008
Today, the campaign released a 30-second television advertisement entitled "Running" that highlights John Sununu's long record of voting with George Bush and against New Hampshire families.

And the cinematic music adds to the sprintin' meme in a great way.

I watched one ad last night from that series from the Museum of the Moving Image, and it had an ad pointing out the opponent's record with white on black letters and the bolded parts in red - very similar.

Somebody agreed with me! (0.00 / 0)

I had a most satisfying smile.

When I signed up to Blue Hampshire I made a suggestion of an ad showing Sununu as running away from his record.

I'm relieved someone finally came up with one

Yaay!

They could call it "seeing the elephant and skeedaddling."

For our purposes Sprinter sounds just fine.
