DescriptionRepublicans are almost as impressed as Democrats by Gov. Bill Richardson’s resume — or at least, his advertising about his resume — according to a survey by Wilson Research Strategies.

Two campaign ads feature New Mexico’s Richardson (D), a presidential candidate, in a job interview. In one, the interviewer sums up Richardson’s many experiences in public service, including his roles as governor, energy secretary and congressman, and then as a punchline asks him why he’s qualified to be president. In the second one, the interviewer suggests the governor might be overqualified.

The ads have gotten widespread praise on the Web for their clever message. It appears Republicans almost wholeheartedly agree.

GOPers rated Richardson’s offerings far above average across the board, giving them a 7.2 for their appeal and a 7.6 for their memorability. Respondents are asked to rate the ads in six categories from zero to 10.
