Could Jerry Labriola’s Political Old Spice Spoof Get Him A Seat In Congress?
When Vermont’s Daniel Freilich spoofed Old Spice as part of his Senatorial campaign it left a bad taste in a lot of voters mouths. However, a new video campaign from Jerry Labriola, who is running for congress in the third district of Connecticut, shows that when you do something right you get a lot better results.

Old Spice Parodies Not Recommended For Political Campaigns

However, unlike with the Old Spice campaign, you probably had no idea anything out of the ordinary was going on yesterday. With a mere 2,750 views on 18 videos in the first 24 hours, the campaign paled in comparison to Old Spice’s 40 million plus views. So where did Cisco go wrong?
