Not bad IMO. Just points out basically that his popularity isn't based on anything of substance, but rather in image alone. Personally, I think it is fair criticism in the ad. If Obama has a problem with it, instead of whining about it, provide something to counter the point. If you have done something (lead the push for some kind of legislation in his 142 days in the Senate prior to declaring) that shows actual leadership, by all means, bring it out, I'd love to see it. The problem I think the Obama people have with it is the negative images associated with Britney & Paris (obviously). I actually saw it this morning (started running in WI today). Not bad IMO.
