Watching this political race between Obama and McCain, reminds me of the way in which car companies flood the market with vehicles when they find a certain style starts to capture the dollars of the consuming public.
To wit:
In 2000, Chrysler introduces the PT Cruiser …
In 2004, the Scion XB (aka “The Box”) surfaces …
2005, Honda unleashes the Element …
2006, Chevy releases the Heritage High Roof, or HHR …
2008, Ford says “Me too!” with the Flex …
Barack Obama launches his campaign for the presidency with the theme of “Change…”
And now, John McCain rolls out his new campaign theme: Original Mavericks with a not-so-subtle dash of “real change.”
