Democrats serving Argentine pizza

When it comes to lameness - the Democrats just hit the home run of marketing fail.

What is this - an emoticon of a fat guy sticking his tongue out?

Their new logo:


Chris Good's former employer:



The Maggie's Royal Navy's favorite target:



As for me - like Obama's logo - what is it with the weak cheese, diluted blue? That may be many things, but that isn't American blue. I wonder what it looks like on an armband.

Just say'n.

Photoshop anyone?

They paid MONEY for someone to design that. 

And they think they should be trusted with our tax dollars...

Speaking about roundels, I wish the US went back to the solid blue circle and white star - I'd even go more retro and put the red circle back in the center of the star - we're allies of the Japanese now for god's sake.

Looks like United Nations blue

sid said...

Its a pervasive underlying color on MSNBC....

Check it out.

(Fox has alot of garish red)

When you're the 'target' of such poor poll numbers, why would you EVER think that a circle logo would be a good thing??

SJBill said...

Kinda like a Sphincter-Cam view of an entering tongue? From the Left???

We have the same logo on the Down button for the elevator in my office....I love appropriate symbolism!

Bill said...

It looks like a target. G-d, now someone's going to thing I'm advocating violence.

Health care reform, aisle 6.  There is a blue light special on war funding.

I had EXACTLY the same reaction when I saw it:  That's just lame.  Perfect example of rearranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic.

Kristen said...

I"m good with that.  Every dime they spent of this stupid thing is a dime that didn't go to a candidate somewhere.

I wont be concerned until Pepsi changes their logo to match...

The City of Providence paid a TN company to rebrand Providence. $100K later we have an orange "P" - ISYN. Apparently this was too difficult for RISD to design for free. Insult to injury, the mayor David Cicline, just one the primary to take the seat vacated by Patches Kennedy (insert puke emoticon here).

If I was Duracell, I'd be pis$ed, looks more like my D battery labels....

DC - UN Blue - Fitting

Perhaps they wanted to go red and pink, but thought that would be too telling?

LT B said...

WTF?  You owe me a keyboard!  :)

Mid Mom said...

Sal, you're serious? This isn't a joke?

cdrsalamander said...

Nope - serious as a heart attack.

"Change that matters?"  Boy howdy, there's some ambiguity right there...if the Stupid Party had any decent media or marketing people, they could rip that a new one for years.

The *only* thing that matters is the US Constitution, the interpretation of same *as the Founding Fathers intended*, and the defense thereof.  You idiots can keep your change, and stick it in your afterburners...

FbL said...

First thing I thoguht when I saw "Change that Matters," was "Ah, this is different than the Obama change, which DIDN'T matter."

Grumpy Old Ham said...

Well, lookee who else is on the pointless rebranding bandwagon...how about just lowering your prices instead of wasting money on that crap?
