The Rounds commercial is better. It does what it's supposed to do. But I question whether it will change any minds. As just one part of the overall campaign plan though, it builds on Kelly's theme. If Rounds does this for only Kelly I give the ad an A. If he does the same thing for 5 other Sioux Falls Republican candidates, the value of its message gets diluted and I give it a C.
His "goofy" ad is goofy however. Why does he have a couple of college kids who sound like they just left the Crow Bar doing the voice-ins to the ad? Maybe he wants to connect with younger votes.
Rounds kind of sounds phony in his ad....going through the motions. He just needs to remember he is a salaried employee of the state and he was getting paid pretty good money that day for sitting in a studio and cutting ads for Kelly, Heineman, Earley and the rest of the foot soldiers in our great Republican party.
Pulling the Gov endorsement out tells me Kelly's really worried and feeling desperate. It was nice of Rounds to do it, but I don't think it helps the campaign.
And now that I've ripped him up ... good luck Dick. I hope you win!
Kelly's in trouble and he's showing it. 1215 and abstinance only educ doesn't sit well in 13. Out of touch.
I was told it's on the cell phone tax...slickly produced but lacking substance.
Match that with Dick's thoughtful but rough around the edges spots and it sounds likes the candidates' ads kind of reflect them.
