We’re Number Two! We’re Number Two!
At this morning’s meeting of the Conservative Agenda, Political Insiders were asking Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane about all the folderol over Ohio Governor John Kasich’s second-place finish in last night’s New Hampshire Republican Presidential Primary. “He spent 64 days (including an estimated $10 million or so in ads, mostly run by a super-pac) conducting town meetings all over the Granite State,” Kane explained. “He certainly should’ve gotten more than a crappy 16% of the vote. And you really had to laugh when Kasich’s cheerleaders at The Fishwrap claimed Kasich’s BFD win in Dixville Notch vaulted him into “GOP Prominence,” whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean.
That’s why our Quote for Today Committee chose Bobby Unser’s Nobody remembers who finished second but the guy who finished second.
Maybe Kasich should now copy Avis Car Rental’s “We’re Number Two, We Try Harder” Campaign. In 1962, Avis was in search of a new advertising campaign. Since its inception, the car rental company had trailed behind the market leader, Hertz. So the ad agency Doyle Dane Bernbach decided to embrace Avis’ second-place status as a sneaky way to tout the brand’s customer service. “When you’re only No. 2, you try harder,” went the new tagline. “Or else.”
“Actually, as any honor student of the Forrest Gump School District can tell you, coming in second has long been a part of American History, Kane added, because Thomas Jefferson wrote, “We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Coming in Second.”
And even the Pledge of Allegiance says, “One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and Coming in Second for all.”
