I write political satire. But sometimes, the truth is far beyond any scope of imagination and fictional capacity, inflated with so much absurdity that there is absolutely no room for satirizing it.

This ad, made for failed Hewlett Packard CEO and flailing Republican candidate for Senate in California, Carly Fiorino, is the ultimate satire. And against all odds and media consultants, it is real. This happened. This was made for an actual political candidate, running for the UNITED STATES SENATE in the largest state in the union.

I have two theories here. Either she hired a hipster ad firm in hopes of cornering the ironic vote, or someone played a horrible, horrible trick on her. An ad man that was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, if you will.
