Send This Woman To Washington, D.C. And She'll Make Politicians Squeal Like Pigs

Charles Cooke says this spot has the greatest opening line in the history of political ads. Personally I think "I'm Joani Ernst" is kind of meh but that next line is by far the greatest second line ever in the history of political ads.

And just to be *that guy*, we need to get beyond the idea that pork spending, no matter how annoying, isn't the problem. It's the entitlements, stupid. Also, does she include farm subsidies, wind power credits and the ethanol mandate as "pork" or is that good old fashioned necessary "investments"?

Still...funny ad. Which was sort of the point of this post before it got away from me for a second.

Since I'm swiping that video from Cooke you should check out his post on how the left turns on its rising stars the second they dare go off script.
