I wonder if the stars on the ribbon represent his Panamanian birth, or if they're a reaction to the Death Panels his former running mate Sarah Palin created in her Welfare State?
Either way, they need to get the approval from their party leader, Rush Limbaugh. He might not like the logo.
They both say McCain. Both blue and white. The both have the same thing, a flag and a star. I mean obviously a flag isn't exactly the same thing as a star but they're practially the same thing, aren't they?
One has some yellow and one has some red. Is that what I'm supposed to notice?
I wonder if salivating is the intended reaction to this logo. If so, mission accomplished. Now I want bacon. But I still don't want to vote for McCain.
That's really a terrible logo - but then again I've been programmed at an unconscious level by my cultural environment to loathe red, so of course I'm not going to like it. Even trying to adjust for that, though, it's not a good logo.
All the same, if McCain loves bacon, so much the better. The more he eats, the sooner he keels over.
In fact, I think all legislators should be entitled to all the bacon they can eat at all times. It'll give us more turnover among all the old fat white men that fill up Congress.
Well, from the viewer's POV, the ribbon points decidedly to the right. AND the looping creates a definite "C", which of course stands for "conservative", so there's lot's of subliminal messaging going on here as well (although strangely, the "TM" bug sort of sends a decided "this image is a corporate logo" message, but with most conservatives, that probably represents a plus).
I'm a bit surprised the backfield with the stars wasn't outlined in blue instead of red, which would have been even more evocative of the flag, if that was the effect they were attempting. But, maybe they figured too much color juxtaposition would only confuse the bubbas...
And of course, we can't discount the positive connotations a bacon-like image would have with the unwashed masses.
That is a horrible logo, and a horrible font. The font looks like they were going for "serious and authoritative" and ended up with "dusty old fuddy-duddy"
I would seriously like, in one of these innumerable "horrible font" posts, for someone to explain in plain English just what is so horrible about the font.
Either way, they need to get the approval from their party leader, Rush Limbaugh. He might not like the logo.
I really hope the logo had two stars, meaning...well...Rear Admiral.

And the stupid voters chose the guy who gave up drinking...

Could be a Fruit Rollup....John is all about the 80s....
Yep, totally in keeping, totally representative.
