Sorry - was that a trailer for Terminator 5, the end of a Die hard movie, a trailer for Space Cowboys 2 ? Music sure fit.

Do you guys in the US really go for this stuff ? I mean, the music, the imagery etc ? The young hero coming up to take on the establishment ? "Reclaim Washington for liberty", "Freedom from government", "Putting a stop to everything they are doing" etc - what a load of bullshit.

He needs new PR or he's just more of the same. Next it'll be "Pete Schiff - Change you can believe in".

Peter Schiff just went down massively in my estimation.

Not that you actually give a shit what I think.

Dodd has cancer at the moment.  The last thing he needs is this guy nipping at his heels.

that being said, schiff obviously knows a lot about the economy.  I wonder why he'd go up against an expereinced top finance guy like this.  Schiff isn't just trying to get into the senate- he's trying to knock out the top denate Dem while doing so.  Bold move.  Personally, I'd move to idaho and carpetbag my way into office.  schiff has balls.

Yup - I bet you heard that music, stood up, put your right hand on your heart & said 'God bless whatever fucking bullshit it is I'm supposed to be believing today' and shed a tear or two at that.

Honestly - anyone that gets taken in by that "Peter Schiff, Lone Wolf" bullshit needs a reverse lobotomy.

This has been planned from the start. All that "I'm only getting into politics because people love me" - who does he think he is - Thaksin Shinawatra ?

Do you evenlisten to what he says or do you just spount off your dislike for him?

Experienced? Experienced enough to take sweet heart "mortgages" and dump trucks full of campaign "donations" from AIG. And to sit at the top of the Senate and, apparently, not know what the hell was going on when it all came apart.

The sad part is, it looks like you're serious.  At least the gimmicks these days are good for laughs.

I have listened to Peter Schiff... I like much of what he has to say.

As for this infomercial - it discredits him.

Reminds me of a Gillette ad - "Be all that you can be" - or was that the Marines ? Same shit.

The guy is on the money with most of what he says, and if you follow my posts, I've liked the guy for a long time.  The music and all that other shit is to attract the average CNN/Fox news watcher.

Schiff is dumbing himself down here. He's being the agent of change by being the same.

Do you think Schiff didn't cringe a bit when he saw what his PR people produced ?

If he DID cringe, he let the PR people push him into something he didn't want to do. What's he gonna do with donors ?

If he DIDN'T cringe - well, he's just more of the same.

Pedro - serious question.

If you were coming up with a Schiff informercial, what would you have produced and what message would you have Peter give?

Schiff has got to where he is by being pretty straight & telling things like they are.

I'd fuck off all the hero stuff & the Hollywood 'goodbye wife, I have to give up my own life to save the babies/puppies/dolphins/world' type music.

Why the need to change tack now ? Peter Schiff is not a war hero, he's not going to pull your kids out of a burning building. He's an economist and a very good one. He does actually know what America needs to do in order to sort itself out financially.

Do you think America is ripe right now for another Obama ? Do you think American is currently open to hype ? I think America is pretty sick & tired right now. I think the time is right for low key music & straight talk. That infomercial says nothing.

Right now, if I were Mr Schiff - I'd keep on doing what I've been doing all along.

I personally think the time stamped "Peter Schiff Was Right" video is enough to convince most people where is is saying stuff in 2002-2008 and people are laughing at him.

So you have no direct criticism of what I said, right ? You prefer cliche over substance ?

If you can respect a man of intelligence for laying that down and dumbing himself up for the populace then we can probably not argue the point.

 His videos are made by his supporters. They wanted him to run, they asked him to run all the time, if you listened to his radio show you would know that. He's listening to them, something differnet for a change. They donate their money and time. The public is his PR. They feel very passionalty about gettting him in the Senate because he's not a douchbag like Dodd is. You'd think you'd be critical of Dodd who was complelty wrong but no, you would rather get your panties in a bunch over this video.
