In reply to the discussion: Holy shit they're real. (Perdue/Loeffler billboard): [View all]cab67
(2,992 posts)48. From a straight-up advertising point of view, I don't like it.
First - the text is open to interpretation. I could easily read this as a call for more effective conservative candidates who, unlike Loeffler and Perdue, might have delivered for Trump. This is the opposite of the message we should be sending. (I had to think about the text for a moment to really figure it out. If an ad needs to be thought about before the message comes through, it's not an effective ad.)
Second - the photos of the two boneheads are standard headshots. If I drive by this billboard and can't read the text for some reason, I'm going to think it's their ad.
