While we're on the subject of politics and design, here's a clever review of some of the current presidential candidate logos.

Reading Tea Leaves and Campaign Logos, from the NY Times.

    I really like Obama's campaign signs / logo. It's the only one I've seen this season that is "hey, that's different." Not the same old boring sign in red, white and blue, text and maybe a flag in there for extra patriotism.

    The Obama logo is also the only one that says "21st century" to me.

    Odin, it's a little WPA for me, but if you didn't watch the slide show, you have to.

    Yeah, I saw the slide-show. It's one of those where satire is close enough to reality to be exasperating.

  • MelGX November 21, 2007

    True dat.

    Most of the design points aren't satire.

    Mel,

    Doesn't this slide make the best point?: http://www.nytimes.com/...opinion/20071118_OPART_14.html

    Thanks for posting this.

    It does David. And that is sort of the bottom line, isn't it?
