Christine O'Donnell Hires...DRUM ROLL PLEASE...Fiorina's "Demon Sheep" Ad Man
Christine O'Donnell Hires Carly Fiorina's Ad Man

http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2010/09/christine_odonnell_hires_carly.html



Last February, California Republican nominee for the the Senate Carly Fiorina ran an ad that compared fellow Republican and rival Tom Campbell to a demon sheep hiding in a valley. The ad, made by Fred Davis at Strategic Perception Inc., is so completely bizarre and poorly put-together, it seems like an SNL parody, and it was largely ridiculed by political blogs. Naturally, Delaware's GOP nominee for senate Christine O'Donnell hired Fred Davis yesterday.

In our heads, O'Donnell rang up Fiorina and was like, "Hey, Carly. Know anyone who can make a totally ridiculous ad for me? I'm lookin' to go even more viral than the time I said I dated a witch." Fiorina was like, "Christine, I know just the guy for you. Here's his number." And voila, Fred Davis has a new gig!

O'Donnell taps Davis for ad magic (Politico)

3. Oh the irony!
With all of her dabbling in witchcraft getting so much attention does she really think an ad with glowing eyed demons will help?
