Re: Retrofitted Quayleisms and Nike....

I guess the supporters of George "DUH-buh-yuh" figure the internet quote from Al just isn't enough, so someone visited that site I listed in my last post, did a search-and-replace Quayle with Gore, and off they went! If this is the best GW supporters can do this is an ominous sign for GW IMHO...

Meanwhile, I see Nike is one of the big losers on the market today. I don't see any news why, but this is the 2nd Olympics in a row their ads have succeeded in pi**ing off would-be customers...remember the obnoxious "You don't win silver, you lose gold" Olympic ad series in '96? At the end of the day, the difference between sneakers is marketing, and Nike has proven surprisingly inept. They should roll out some new Tiger Woods ads pronto, I mean, they can't screw THAT up...can they?!
