Frankenstein (1931)
Using clips from the 1931 movie Frankenstein, the announcer acts like President Obama is Dr. Frankenstein, and the monster he creates is Obamacare. So Dr. Frankenstein shouts: “It’s alive, alive! (etc.)”, and the others stand around looking horrified. Then we get to the scene where Dr. Waldman is about to dissect the monster, but it wakes up and strangles the doctor to death, and the announcer could say something about how government mandates and red tape are strangling doctors and healthcare standards, yadda yadda. And at the end, we could hear Dr. Waldman’s voice say: “You have created a monster, and it will destroy you! Nothing but evil can come of it!”, or: “Shoot it: it’s a monster!”
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931)
The announcer talks about how healthcare used to be good in the old days, but then government got involved, and it got worse, and then Obamacare was passed, and it turned our healthcare system into a monster. While the announcer is talking, we see the scene from the 1931 film Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde where Dr. Jekyll is curing some young girl, and then we see the scene where he drinks the formula and transforms in to the monstrous and grotesque Mr. Hyde, and he starts rampaging around, killing people. Then the announcer could say that we must stop Obamacare before it’s too late, and then we would see the end of the movie, where Mr. Hyde is shot by the police and dies, saying he shouldn’t have meddled in what man was meant to leave alone, etc.
Now, these are both ridiculous (and meant in fun), but they would accurately represent the way Republicans feel about Obamacare, I’ll bet. And they would definitely send that message in a very colorful (albeit in B&W) way that most people would instantly recognize. And, they’d have all the hysteria and histrionics as in most political ads, so they’d fit right in with the lot of the them.
