John McCain Keeps Adrants in Business

Poor John McCain. The dude just continues to be trashed online. In a new video from the Service Employees International Union, McCain is trashed for supporting tax loopholes which make it financially attractive to buy and sell companies which often leads to lower wages and job cuts. The Union calls out McCain’s support of the loopholes by comparing him to monsters from old Japanese movies.

Writing on AdFreak, David Giantasio points out some of the monsters come from the movie Gappa, the Triphibian Monster in which monsters weren’t actually evil but simply became destructive after being misunderstood by people. And in a seemingly Republican-leaning comment, Giantasio closes with, “Just like John McCain.”

When it comes to mudslinging, objectivity and transparent truthfulness are, indeed, after thoughts. As heated as it gets, no politician, one would hope, sets out to be vindictively evil. It’s just interpreted that way based on their support or non-support for various issues.

No political issue is as simple as a commercial positions it. If it were, there’d be no such thing as politics in the first place, Hence, no political ads, Hence, no political marketers or agencies. Hence, no occasionally witty YouTube videos to write about and who wants that? Seriously. Without political bitch fights and marketing battles in general, there’d be no reason for Adrants (or any marketing publication) to exists and who really wants that?

Wait. Don’t answer that. There’s probably thousands of you out there that wish we’d just shut up and go away.

Cornell researcher Vanessa Bohns has spent years studying why people agree to requests they’d rather decline, and her research consistently finds that people dramatically overestimate the social cost of saying no, which means most of the exhaustion of over-committing gets paid for a consequence that was never really on the table
