Beer Electoral Law

Several questions ocurred to me while watching the recent ad-war between Bud and Miller.

1) Why would a company want to align itself with an annoying smarmy politician type, probably the single least popular archetype possible?

2) Wow, doesn't Budweiser seem really pissed off?

3) Has any of this ever made someone want to drink that swill?

Fortunately, Slate comes to the rescue with an ad report card covering the whole thing.

Like Seth, I eagerly await to see if Miller can come up with a response. All this attention has approximately 0% chance of causing me to drink anything made by one of these companies.

(Disclosure: OK, I admit it, I actually like High Life. But I'll do without the rest of it. )
