New Ron Paul Ad Takes On Romney, Perry, And Bachmann

According to Politico, this new ad from the Paul campaign will be running in Iowa and New Hampshire, although it’s unclear how big the ad buys actually are:

This is actually a fairly well-produced ad, much better than other ads I’ve seen from the Paul campaign in the past.

It’s an odd ad considering how much conservatives/Republicans used the term “The One” (or the chosen one, the anointed one…choose your favorite) as a pejorative against Obama.

That said, its well produced. It’s like Ron Paul has decided to take himself seriously this time.

Well in order to beat your opponent you have to be different from him. Paul is the only who is actually different in a positive way.
