I know who Garmel and Sangre are voting for, and we know who Switzer wishes he could vote for.
Like I said earlier, I don't think the ad is dumb at all. If you're a big name candidate and do something like this, obviously it's dumb because you have something to lose. If Kay Bailey Hutchison had shown off her boobs, it would have ruined her brand and her career.
But if you're a no-name candidate, you have no brand or career to ruin. Most of us had no idea who this chick was ten minutes ago and never would have cared to look. She was just a name on a ballot. We all know now. Furthermore, some of us looked into her story and found out that she actually is qualified - more so than her main opponent. That's a net positive.
And she's right to say she's has other assets. Money (through advertising) is what usually gets candidates discovered by voters. Boobs are playing that role for her.
