Remember the famous "this corn is raw" scene?

When I first saw it, I thought it was George Will. But he didn't sound pompous enough.

Amazing that they got the same actor in 2016.
Got a kick out of him lighting up a cigarette, different era for sure.

(47,770 posts)13. Hillary's ads have been extraordinary
She has some real talent working for her campaign.

The Clinton campaign's Twitter game has been outstanding.

(47,770 posts)17. Many of the TV ads
don't come across as typical campaign ads, so people are less likely to automatically fast-forward through them.
The best of the best appear to be working for Hillary.
