This is how I imagine the conversation around these Bobby Jindal ads went down…
Republican Marketing Guy #1: Hey, man, I need your help. I have to make these web ads for Bobby Jindal’s response to Obama’s speech on Tuesday night, and I can’t figure out the exact perfect note to strike with them.
Republican Marketing Guy #2: Why not just make him look like some kind of an aging Bollywood-ish lounge singer heartthrob guy for grandmothers and women with too many cats?
Republican Marketing Guy #1: Hmmmm…. maybe. But it just seemed not quite right.
Republican Marketing Guy #3: (leaning over cubicle wall) I know what you should do. Make him look like one of those best-selling new-age authors who also sells a line of vitamins that supposedly cure cancer and turns up on Oprah every few weeks.
Republican Marketing Guy #2: No way! Go with the lounge singer!
Republican Marketing Guy #3: Fuck you, man. Lounge singers are for d-bags. Use the new age author!
Republican Marketing Guy #2: What if I took that new age author and jammed it up your urethra sideways?!
Republican Marketing Guy #3: You try it and you’ll be using your balls as a tongue for the next year.
Republican Marketing Guy #2: What the fuck does that even mean?!
Republican Marketing Guy #3: I don’t know! I heard some guy say it on the bus the other day!!
Republican Marketing Guy #1: Hmmm… Maybe I’ll use both ideas.
