That is an ad by Republican Sean Bielat running for an open seat in Massachusetts. Guess who he's running against?
A frickin Kennedy! That would be Joe Kennedy III, who looks, talks, and carries himself like a 100% pure blooded Kennedy through and through.
Now I know Bielat is relatively new to politics. This was going to be an uphill race considering it is Barney Frank's seat and this is Massachusetts in a presidential election year. But dude, you gotta understand: showing pictures of a young, vibrant Jack Kennedy is only going to cause Bay Staters to run TO the nearest Kennedy available. Especially one who has that trademark toothy Kennedy smile. Why in God's name would folks think "ah....i sure loved Jack...better vote for Bielat!"
Furthermore, everyone knows how much the Kennedys stick together. Does he actually think that if Jack were around he'd be endorsing some guy over his own nephew? A nephew named after his father and beloved lost brother? Bobby's Grandson? Teddy's favorite nephew? You gotta be kidding me.
Message to Mr. Bielat: Run for local office and build a reputation for yourself friend. You're way, way out of your league in this race.
