Not only that, but the strongest negative reactions in this thread are from hard left posters. Got news for them: these ads aren't targeted at them.

That being said, I do agree with Cowperson's commentary re: the Ignatieff ads vs. these. The problem with targeting perceived in experience is that it only takes time to overcome that. The Ignatieff ads targeted motive, and that is far more effective. The latter was brilliantly effective, the former, much more difficult to pull off.
