Republican operatives in Washington are praising Scott Brown's latest campaign ad. The ad, a contrast spot being run by the Republican Massachusetts senator, shows that Brown's Democratic opponent, Elizabeth Warren, is to the left on economic issues of John F. Kennedy, Bill Clinton, Lyndon B. Johnson, Gerald Ford, and Ronald Reagan. Watch here: Instead of being in the mainstream, Warren, along with President Barack Obama, is shown to be an opponent of free enterprise. The ad is called, "Let America Be America Again."
"Devastating," says one Republican operative. "Long--but does a really good job of showing how radical the Obama/Warren view of the economy really is." The operative believes it should "absolutely" be emulated by other Republican candidates around the country, and adds, "it's such a positive message as opposed to the angry, negative Obama/Warren attacks on free enterprise."
"Powerful," says one top Republican Senate staffer. "I think Brown is touching on a central nerve of American body politic. It's a model for others to follow if they get as lucky with an opponent so far out of touch with American ideals."
The Senate staffer explains: "Americans want to believe in the American dream. Hard work, good morals, commitment to ethics and a little ingenuity can take you anywhere--that's what our parents taught us, that's what makes this land the beacon of hope for billions around the world--and if you're a candidate who disagrees with that fundamental view of America, then you don't deserve to represent Americans in the Senate."

We can criticize Brown on policy...and I have. His campaign team in 2009 was spectacular. It looks like they are ready to go again in 2012
Wow!
That was really good stuff. Definitely the template for many others to use.
Which, of course, makes her the perfect candidate for the Massholes.
agreed...shorten it by taking out the Gerald Ford and maybe LBJ stuff and its dynamite...Romney should definitely use this idea moving forward...
I like the ad but would prefer:
“America WILL BE America again!!!”

My only criticism is that they didn't have video and audio of JFK.
The libs in Mass worship the Kennedys, and that would have made it even more powerful.
The first is too long. When you see “how did we go from this” — you keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.
You wait for a long, long, time.
Good concept, but less than perfect execution.
To bad he is liberal. He will say one thing to get elected, and do another. He has already proven that.
