Daisy ad redux

I saw this ad last night. Apparently Colorado senator Michael Bennet (D) is trying to nuke some children or something. If that’s where political ads are over a year out from the election, I can’t wait to see where this thing goes once things escalate. Gotta love living in a swing state.

Is this a sign that 2016 election season will take attack ads to a new level?

First thing I want to know is who’s idea was it to have the kids do the countdown in several “foreign” languages? If you’re pitching to pickle-up-the-butt tighty rightys, you ought to at least know where the strike zone is.

Plus, it’s a case of premature detonation, isn’t it? That last poor little girl didn’t even get to finish saying “One” before it all goes boom in a big, glowing mushroom cloud.
