Remember my Design Aesthetic of the Kook Website post?

There is much to admire in George Hutchins for Congress 2010 campaign website. The color. The glare. The angry fruit salad. And you might consider it understated compared to his sister site, National Independents Movement website. And no giggling!

I see your George Hutchins and raise you a Chris Cantwell (http://www.voteforcantwell.com) Better design, stranger stare.

Insufficiently hideous, visually or conceptually - for the intended comparison.

Hutchins has the Oswald Mosely thing TOTALLY going on...

It's really hard to say what's more offensive: the racism, the stupidity, or the complete lack of design sense....

I think that "complete lack of design sense" is based in their complete lack of sense.

Man. This guy looks like a 3rd grader tried to create a politician.

I'm also reminded of a bit about a graphic designer vs a client and I can only imagine that this guy was the client.

I am offended that I even incremented the hit counter of that site. That'll teach me.

I'm just smiling as I think how encouraged he'll be by the hit counter, not knowing that much of the traffic is driving by people being sent there to laugh at him.

Perhaps I should be *grateful* for the comparative abundance of design sense at galacticfriends.com then...

Ok I know you were pointing to JUST the website design/colors etc but I have to tell you... There really ARE republicans in NC that would vote for him. Its scary how republican they are in NC. It offended my good natured left winged self to go visit my friends the good ole boy republicans. Ouch, it hurt to say that.
