Nice! I could spend hours watching these videos.

Frank Sinatra for Hubert Humphrey. For some reason I would have tagged him as a conservative. Who is Frank Sinatra you ask? Never mind.

A good New Jersey boy a Republican? Hummmmmmm.

I heard an interview w/ the museum guy on NPR this morning. It was fascinating. I really liked the part about the Spiro Agnew commercial. He was a little known short-term Maryland governor with some background as a county commissioner. The commercial was simply the name Spiro Agnew for Vice President flashed on the screen, with constantly increasing laughter in the audio.

Loved Carter's '76 adds.They are the same kind of adds he ran in his '70 campaign for governor of Georgia.

Agnew was county executive of Baltimore County before being elected governor.In '68,Agnew organized the Draft Rockefeller movement.However,when Rockefeller held a press conference in March of that year to say he would not run he failed to give Agnew a heads up.From that point on the dance with Nixon began & at the convention Agnew dropped his favorite son campaign and went with Nixon.

Works as a Democratic ad in 2008.
