Would it kill this guy and his campaign to have some respect for the office he holds?

Update: Unoriginal and classless. Not a great combo.

Via HuffPo (02/27/2012):

Should the first time be for love? But of course, says a new video released by supporters of Vladimir Putin.

A suggestive ad rallying support for Putin’s presidential campaign shows a young woman seeking a fortune-teller’s advice. “Let’s find out, cutie, who is intended to you by destiny,” the mystic says. The girl replies, “You know. I wish it to be for love — It is my first time.”

All indications suggest that the woman is nervous about losing her virginity, but the ad’s horrifying twist is revealed when the fortune-teller flips a card with a portrait of the Russian Prime Minister.

AFP reports that the clip is part of series made by advertising agency Aldus ADV. The agency said it conceptualized the clips “with the aim of attracting a young audience to take part” in Russia’s upcoming elections. AFP adds that the company did not say who ordered the clips.

One difference you will notice is the girl in the Putin ad is infinitesimally better looking.
