Mitt's Inner Joe Isuzu Lives!









For those of you who don't remember the brilliant ads featuring Joe Isuzu, here's a reminder:



J





Joe Isuzu was a fictional spokesman used in a series of television advertisements for Isuzu cars and trucks. Created by the ad agency Della Femina, Travisano, and Partners, the segments aired on American television in 1986-90, reaching their zenith in 1987 after the character was featured during Super Bowl XXI. Played by actor David Leisure[1] (Empty Nest), Joe Isuzu was a pathological liar who made outrageous and overinflated claims about Isuzu’s cars.




PATHOLOGICAL.

That Joe Isuzu ad is brilliant! I said months ago, if the guy who did those ads is still around and would be willing, someone ought to star him in a political ad for Romney. The video is even better than what I envisioned, which would've been Joe Isuzu doing a testimonial ("You can take from me, folks, Mitt Romney's the one. Heh, heh, heh, heh. Trust me.")

If Mark Twain were alive, he'd say, "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and Mitt Romney's campaign."

The Isuzu reference is a funny one. I remember that well!
