Buehler-García’s Ad
Jump to Comments
Ben Buehler-García has been appearing on television screens lately, here he is:
Interestingly, Bueler-García’s ad bears more than a striking resemblance to this Bill Richardson ad which ran in early primary states in 2007. That ad was run as a way to introduce Richardson to voters in states where they may not have been familiar with a guy from New Mexico months before there would be any voting. This ad introduces Buehler-García to voters only a week before early ballots start to hit people’s mail boxes.

We had a field day with this one..
1. He should have just had a voiceover, rather than a handsome, energetic man for viewers to compare him with.
2. Last shot of him does not inspire confidence.
3. He did what? sorry – they talked way too fast.
4. I love Yoo-Hoo! sadly, that’s not enough to get my vote (besides the other obvious reasons).

Yeah, the last shot makes him look like a little bit of a lush….

Ben needed to smile more for the camera, to appear likeable. Not sure if many would be convinced to vote for him after that ad.

The ad was certainly successful in earning some free media coverage (on this blog) so it worked on at least some level.
