More evidence of President Obama’s faltering re-election effort: his campaign has released a new ad comparing voting for the president to virgin sex. Has it really come to this?
So, we know it’s a last-ditch effort on the president’s part to convince Millennial voters to turn out. Problem is, the youth unemployment rate approached 12 percent in September. Enthusiasm just isn’t there. True, some Millennials might turn out just at the prospect of getting some action behind that curtain — until they find out the only action is filling in ovals on a white sheet of paper. Pretty boring, actually.
The die-hard lefties love the ad, but it will creep out middle America. At this point, if Obama is still trying to shore up the base that this ad appeals to, he’s in deep trouble.
The only surprise here: Chris Matthews doesn’t make a comeo in the spot.

Ever noticed what the leftist "women" (at least those in the public sphere) look like, versus the conservatives? No wonder she had to wait for Obama for her first time. Just sayin'...
JP| 10.26.12 @ 9:33AM
I will say it - she doesn't look like the kind of woman who is into men.

Love the tats.

Ah, a restatement of one of Rush Limbaugh's undeniable truths of life:
feminism was established so that unattractive women would have greater access to the mainstream of society. ;)

I guess we should have expected this from the Narcissist-in-Chief. After all, didn't his campaign suggest that people should ask that their wedding gifts be donations to his campaign? It is pretty creepy. I worry about people who think this condescending jerk is cool.

It should certainly be uncomfortable voting for Obama for your virginal vote.
Al Adab| 10.26.12 @ 11:41AM
What is really sick is the fact that this so clearly reveals what the Obama people think we should believe about this president. The mental issues should really be a serious concern.

The sad thing about the Millennial generation is that there have to be far more unemployed than there are virgins.
Which ought to be good news for Romney.

"it will creep out middle America."
I should hope so. There isn't anything about the ad that isn't shameful.
Occam's Tool| 10.29.12 @ 2:16PM
Yes, but I thought the first time was usually painful for most women. At least with men of a certain size...
