Election 2012 Eileen Brady Puts Jobs on Things
Posted by Alex Zielinski on Mon, Apr 9, 2012 at 1:44 PM
During last week's OPB-hosted mayoral candidate discussion, Think Out Loud's David Miller asked the three top candidates what Portland should put on things besides birds (for cave-dwellers, this is a reference to Portlandia's "Put a Bird On It" skit). Charlie Hales and Jefferson Smith both ignored the seemingly irrelevant question, but Eileen Brady was quick to chime in: "Put a job on it!" Cringe.
And you thought that was the last of it. A local production company, Mmmmm Society, took it upon themselves to donate a Portlandia-esque campaign ad to Brady's campaign. It's overly cutesy and contains HUGE BUTTERFLIES. Be warned.
