[Sadly this ad is no longer on the internet.] Oh, man, it’s finally that time in the political cycle where we get back to some quality advertisements. Here we have Joni Ernst, a Republican from Iowa who is running for the Senate. In this spot, she basically says that she knows how to castrate pigs, so she’ll know how to stop spending, all while we hear the squeals of pigs in the background. It’s all kinds of creepy. Enjoy.

The newest in our unofficial series where we meet candidates and look at their awesome advertisements, I’d like you to meet Les Phillip, who vows to protect America from enemies both foreign and domestic: Honestly, I thought we were done with the whole “Obama-pallin’-around-with-terrorists” thing, but I guess nothing wins quite like the classics. Like an opening band playing ’80s covers, I guess you’ve got to give the people what they know.
