Politics Dow Constantine's New TV Ad

Posted by on Thu, Oct 15, 2009 at 8:01 AM


It's not the most polished ad, but it's smart. King County Executive candidate Dow Constantine gets in solid digs at Susan Hutchison—on the environment, on a woman's choice—while casting himself as the progressive reform candidate.

Excellent five-dollar production - I adore the lady dressed in the classic granny-coat and cap, and it's sweet watching people's eyes wander away from the lens.

Is he chewing his tongue a little in the last shot?

It's a good start. He looks so damn stiff standing there in front of his supporters though.

Down with Dow would be a better slogan, Though i suppose that would be ambiguous.

The woman's voice they use in the commercial sounds A LOT like Susan Hutchison. Nice touch~

Gosh, he's a handsome devil.

Dow is insanely more qualified than Hutchinson. I can't even believe she's a viable candidate, much less ahead. It's mind-boggling how stupid voters can be. Did we learn nothing from the Bush years?

A good first effort. Suzie is a pro-life, science-doubting Republican and this illustrates that well. I'm with Dow.

The state/PDC is investigating Constantine’s campaign for illegal and unethical activities.
