Bill Richardson's job interview: I'm hiring him

Okay, so it's self-serving. All political ads are, aren't they? But this one's truly clever. It shows Richardson, former New Mexico guv, seated at an interviewer's desk. The interviewer lists off Richardson's accomplishments like it's a grocery list: "...achieved peace in Darfur, nominated four times for Noble Peace Prize..." Blah, blah, blah. Then the moron takes a huge bite out of his sandwich.

Have we all been there or what? Makes me want to vote for Richardson, I'll tell you that much. Or for his campaign's ad director.
