Anyone who read this blog back during the Super Bowl might
remember I said I thought that Chrysler ad with Clint Eastwood (the one that
said it was halftime in America) seemed more like an ad for Mitt Romney, when a
lot of other people were saying it seemed like an ad for Barack Obama. Well, it
looks like I was on target with that one, because Clint Eastwood is about to
speak at the Republican National Convention in support of Mitt Romney. Hmm, I
wonder if he’ll say it’s halftime in America, and it’s time to send in a new
quarterback or something? (If there’s a football metaphor in the speech there
somewhere, it will be hard to think it’s not related to the Chrysler ad and the
tempest in a teapot it kicked up back then.)
Here’s my old post where I mention the Chrysler Clint Eastwood
Super Bowl ad:
This post is eerily appropriate for another reason as well,
as it’s about really bad weather, and that coincidentally matches pretty well
with Hurricane Isaac’s rampaging across the Gulf Coast and up through the
country this week.
