Mike Huckabee
December 19, 2007 - 10:13am — Mark Olson
Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee recently released this political ad. People have been carping on the ad because it delivers a Christmas message from Huckabee. I'm confused by the political ad, because it actually criticizes political ads, thus becoming a self-loathing advertisement. Huckabee states: "Are you about worn out by all the television commercials you've been seeing, mostly about politics? Well, I don't blame you." I assume, this argument would also apply to the ad itself, which seems counterproductive. What do you think?

The floating cross in the...
Back to page topThe floating cross in the background was a good touch.
Doing the morning news rounds, he said it was the lighting crew that caused it, not him, so no, there was no hidden message.
Maybe.
But when he reviewed the commercial for his final okay, you can bet he thought it was a great idea!
As far as not being a political ad, any canidate that goes anywhere in public right now is a political act.
Give us break Mike, we're not morons.
I don't understand why...
Back to page topI don't understand why people are talking about the hidden "cross" in the ad.
Huckabee packs several religious phrases into a very short message. It’s not like he’s hiding his faith. So if it was a cross, or not, why would it matter?
Aren't subliminal messages meant to be covert?
