Republican Ben Quayle, son of former gaffe-prone vice president Dan Quayle, is running for Congress in Arizona’s third district. He’s out with a new TV ad! And it’s so crazy.
The ad opens with a close-up on Quayle staring intensely into the camera. “Barack Obama is the worst president in history,” he says. “In my generation, we’ll inherit a weakened country. Drug cartels in Mexico, tax cartels in D.C….what’s happened to America?”
Quayle, who’s been sitting, dramatically stands up. “Somebody has to go to Washington and knock the hell out of the place.” Yikes!
Watch this thing, please:
Oh, and in another ad on Quayle’s website, it sure sounds like John O’Hurley (a.k.a. J. Peterman on Seinfeld and the former host of Family Feud) doing the narration. We’re not sure it’s O’Hurley, and the Quayle campaign hasn’t confirmed it one way or the other for us. But give him a listen.
The Arizona primary is August 24.
Late Update: Suspicions confirmed! The Quayle campaign tells us it is indeed Hurley’s voice in the ad.
