I just can't get over Connecticut primaries today!
Lieberman has really outdone himself for sheer stupidity and shamelessness.This has to be the most ridiculous ad I've ever seen. It's not even that it's mean. It's just too silly and stupid to believe. -- Josh Marshall
Notice {in the Lieberman campaign screenshot of a CARTOON bear} how the Weicker bear is all patched up and stuff? Weicker has just gone through hip replacement surgery, and this appears to be mocking him.
I'm not sure why Lieberman and his ad guy thought making fun of seniors who have tough surgeries was a good idea... -- Kos
A Coalition Of Bears Expresses Support For Ned Lamont--"What Joementum did, that ain't cool / he's making us bears, look like fools--break it down now!"
And the senatorial races from the other side of the country are providing some good guffaws as well:
Earlier this week, the NRSC released both a television and radio ad centered on Tester's trademark buzz cut. Both are set in a fictional barbershop and feature the punch line: "Conservative haircut. Liberal values."
Shortly before the primary, Tester's campaign released a commercial titled "Creating a Buzz" that featured Tester's barber, Bill Graves of Riverview Barbershop.
Graves said that Tester is hitting back with yet another commercial, filmed Thursday in his shop.
"I was fairly mad when that (Republican) ad came out," said Graves, 70, who has been a barber for 40 years.
"That guy in the ad isn't a barber. He's an actor and he's never touched Jon Tester's hair," said Graves. He said that he is the only person who has cut Tester's hair in the last 15 years, except for his 22-year-old granddaughter, Megan McKiernan, and a barber in Havre.
But here's the thing that really frosted Graves.
The Republicans' radio ad features the "barber" saying, "didn't leave much of a tip, either." The TV ad goes a step farther: "Didn't leave a tip, either."
However, Tester does tip, said Graves.
"Oh, yeah ...He's very generous," he said.
