1996 - U.S. House of Representatives - Thomas H. (Tom) - Allen - "Herald", 1996-01-01 - 1996-12-31
Scope and Contents
In the 1996 ad for Tom Allen's presidential campaign, scenes depict opponent Jim Longley as conflicted, aligning with Newt Gingrich's controversial policies despite presenting a local, Maine-focused persona. The ad contrasts Longley's Maine rhetoric against his Washington votes, employing visuals such as newspaper clippings and formal statements to underscore the discrepancy and criticize his political alignment with Gingrich. Allen's campaign uses these contradictions to advocate for change.
