Turns out that a couple of the finest political ads in this election aren't attached to a candidate. Visit NozzleRage to see 'em.
The bad news is, they're attached to the whole ethanol mistake/scam, which ends up using more energy to produce than it delivers. That works well for the agribusinesses getting government subsidies - but not so well for the public.
On the other hand, these are worthy examples of a political ad that successfully conveys both a point of view, and a complex policy wonk issue's call to action. And they're kind of entertaining.

Dan, your post is perilously close to drive-by territory. Lack of proper punctuation, a solitary link, three redundant posts (two of which I deleted), peripheral connection to the top post -- which was about policy ads, not campaign ads.
I hope that in future you'll provide more original substance, as you have from time to time in the past.
Perilously close, but a bipartisan stock of campaign ads is close enough to relevance to pass muster, seeing as I was talking about ad quality.
Thanks for deleting the repeats.
