In the spring I saw a program on MSNBC with the pollster Frank Luntz. It featured him testing a campaign commercial on a focus group. The commercial featured Al Gore in his convention speech talking about the death of his sister interspersed with footage of him in 1988 bragging about being a tobacco farmer. Has this commercial run anywhere or was it just something produced for the MSNBC program.
