Mac Ads Used As Parody for Political Ad for Oregon Att. General

I was watching Survivor on our local Portland CBS affiliate last night when I spotted what looked like a Mac/PC ad from Apple.  Instead, Greg Macpherson, running for Oregon Attorney General, used the Apple ads as a template for his political ad.  Pretty funny.

What are your thoughts…it is smart or a cheap rip-off?

I think it is poor imitation, lacking the humor of the original Mac/PC ads. To me Macpherson looks out of touch in this one.

The ad is hilarious and innovative. Everyone in our office was talking about it which is the goal of an ad like that.
