President Palin Is Danny Elfmann's "Greatest Fear"

Famous Hollywod composer Danny Elfmann has worked on a lot of creepy movies (most of them by Tim Burton). But in a new ad produced for the last week of the presidential election, he reveals his greatest fear: a President Palin.

"These are troubled times in a volatile world. With unprecedented crises at home and abroad, we need sound judgment and a steady hand to lead the most powerful nation on Earth," the ad begins, echoing some of the gravitas-laden ads targeting Barack Obama's inexperience. But Elfmann's ad takes a twist: "John McCain's age and continuing battle with cancer makes the liklihood of him not completing his term higher than any president in American history. President Sarah Palin. Think about it."

Yes the very thought of her being my president makes me sick to my stomach and frankly scared and very worried for my countrys future. Hopefully she will fade away after Nov 4th never to rear her ugly head in the lower 48.

I think both Obama and Danny Elfman are on target with their videos focusing on Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin is McCain Achilles heal. But the Elfman video is much more effective than the one put out by the Obama campaign. it’s clever and entertaini­ng and would get people’s attention. It makes an impression­. It delivers a powerful message in a very short time.

I sure hope that doesn't happen....­or we will be the laughing stock of the whole world. (As if we aren't there already.)

Let's put it this way....

As a single, full-time working Mom of a son with Down syndrome and an Independen­t voter, I WOULD NEVER WASTE A VOTE ON THIS WOMAN.

Plus, we were both raised in an Assemblies of God church, but I find her nauseating­. I truly believe that she'd throw anyone under the bus.

And if the GOP are stupid enough to pin their (future) hopes on her, well, they'll get what they deserve.

MOVE ON, GOP!!!

Very effective ad. Thank you for making one that gets this very sober point across. With all the MSM hype and smoke, I'm not sure how many republican­s have really thought this through.
