Davis ads effective and timely

Jim Davis hit the television airwaves this past week with an ad narrated by Former Senator Bob Graham. Not only was the ad timely as Davis was beaten to the tube by his Democratic rival, State Senator Rod Smith, but the ad is actually quite good.

Bob Graham is a familiar and comforting figure for the vast majority of likely Democratic primary voters. In an election where both major candidates claim to be more electable, and the better Democrat, the third party credibility of Graham helps to sell Davis.

Senator Rod Smith hit the airwaves a few weeks ago with reality television themed ads. Most political insiders inclduing your truly hated them, but if recent polls are any indication the ads were at least somewhat effective in getting Smith's name out in a memorable fashion.
