It's Morning Again ...

... in Vancouver, BC.

The sundry scenes and dreamy narration mimic Ronald Reagan’s legendary ad “Morning Again in America.” But where the incumbent trumpeted the strides that the country had made since his election, Republican presidential hopeful Sen. Marco Rubio digs into America’s supposed decline under President Barack Obama in his latest campaign ad of the same name.

“It’s morning again in America,” the ad begins with shots of a harbor, busy city street and serene suburban neighborhood. “Today, more men and women are out of work than ever before in our nation’s history.”

The tone is a much darker one, yes. But Rubio has incorporated another element absent from Reagan’s spot: a tribute to America’s Liberal Party-run neighbor to the north.

As several discerning Canucks have pointed out, the opening shot of Rubio’s American morning is not American at all. It’s Canadian.

The first few seconds of the ad feature a tugboat moving across a serene harbor at dusk. The skyline in the background, however, is not one that can be found on this side of the border. It belongs instead to Vancouver, Canada.

Almost as good as Cruz using a porn actress in one of his campaign ads.

Very fitting, the ad being detached from reality.
