as the actress that appears in this new Romney support ad? Claims to have voted for Clinton, Gore, and the President and now just thinks Romney and Ryan have good ideas and she's skeered because of all the jobs were losing and the reckless spending. I call BS.

(45,319 posts)It is that simple. She's pretending and also speaking copy, written lines, not speaking in her own words. No one uses a counterfit when the original is available.

(135,425 posts)The one with three or four women speaking unconvincingly? My favorite? The woman with the ten tons of make-up on that does a bad job of highlighting her very mean mouth, the brassy blond hair, the nip-and-tuck that forgot the telltale neck, and the years showing, crying about how she's worried about her "children!" Her great-grand "children" maybe...! Did the "young ingenue" they hired for that part not show up?
What a load of desperation! My viewing partners said it was a real motivating ad--it motivates them to be sure to get to the polls EARLY to vote for POTUS on Tuesday!
I wish they'd find these actresses, and find out for whom they are actually voting. No shitty little commercial payday can be worth the loss of one's integrity like that.
There's one here running for Scott Brown that is total horseshit, too--it's a "Chariots of Fire" type soundtrack, a lot of color correction and afternoon sun, "inspiring" shots of the candidate...and it says Absolutely. Nothing. They might as well say as the tag line "Vote for Scott Brown....because, er, well, because."

(37,364 posts)the one with the actress who overdoes the worry in her voice about everything and lapses over into whining--you know, the one who is running to forget how her husband lost 3 jobs in 2 years or some such thing.
