Alright, I admit, these are mostly from the Republican side, but here are some interesting House ads from 2008
First positive ones
Bill Cassidy (R-LA)
Cassidy beat Congressman Don Cazayoux
Lou Barletta (R-PA)
Barletta lost because of how well Obama did in PA
Negative Ads
Against Paul Carmouche (D-LA)
Carmouche barely lost
Against Raul Martinez (D-FL)
Martinez lost
Against Jim Esch (D-NE)
Esch lost
Against Tim Bee (R-AZ)
Bee lost...most DCCC from this cycle have a pretty similar theme to this ad, trying to tie Bush to every candidate
Most controversial ad of cycle, against Parker Griffith (D-AL), one station would not continue playing the ad
Griffith won.
One of the most talked about ads, Tom Feeney (R-FL)
Feeney lost
And finally just funny...
Against Dina Titus (D-NV) by Freedom's Watch
Titus Won
There are hundreds of House ads out there, these are some of the most interesting ads, and some of the most used themes from the cycle.
This blog serves my Congress course (Claremont McKenna College Government 101) for the spring of 2024.
