The New York Post spoke to Anthony Sullivan and AJ Khubani, to of the world’s leading producers of the infomercials, and they agreed: Barry’s was a bad infomercial.

“I don’t see enough smiling. Doom and gloom totally,” said Anthony Sullivan, one of the biggest names in infomercial history.

“I feel depressed right now,” added Sullivan, an Englishman famous for his infomercials touting the Swivel Sweeper and Smart Chopper. The only thing saving Obama, Sullivan said, was when the candidate appeared live at the end speaking at a rally in Florida.

“I think it needed it. I was about to throw myself through a window because it was depressing,” Sullivan said.

He and AJ Khubani, who has produced infomercials for 25 years, said Obama also fell short of offering solutions to the dire problems he laid out.

But Obama had some leftoever, illegal donations to spend, so no harm, no foul. Unless you missed your favorite network TV show.
