That's really clever. I don't care what your politics are, that's a funny ad. I think it would work better as a series of ads - at 95 seconds the joke went on too long - but the concept is terrific.

Why did the candidate have to bring the "big ears" comment into the message. That's clearly an insult to President Obama. President Obama can't help that he was born with big ears. Probably from some recessive gene on his white mother's side.

This is clearly racist. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Chris Matthews and other leaders of the African American movement need to get involved.
