Obama Campaign Releases Attack Ad Starring Big Bird

Not sure how much longer any of us — both the campaign and punchline-desperate writers — can keep this one going, but if nothing else, the mental image of Big Bird as an feathery Wall Street overlord, carefully watching the markets from an office high in a glassy tower, is worth a tiny laugh. The campaign is vague about where the ad will air, only saying that it’ll be on national broadcasts and cable.
