BEST POLITICAL ADS: MADE BY AMATEURS. I agree with Jonah Goldberg: this Bush ad is pretty good. It's a positive ad, but one that's substantive rather than maudlin. It probably needs to be cleaned up a little bit, but other than a few font improvements, I think it's basically an ad you could run on television tomorrow.

The quality of the ad reminds me of the "Child's Pay" ad that one the MoveOn.org contest a while back. I'm always amazed: politicians spend millions, and get ads of equal or lesser quality to what can be produced by a few motivated amateurs.
