Chrysler is king of the Super Bowl spots

CNNMoney -- Once again, Chrysler's Super Bowl ad won the hearts and minds of football fans, this time with a little help from Clint Eastwood and, of course, Detroit.

"This country can't be knocked out in one punch," Eastwood, said. "We get right back up again, and when we do, the world will hear the roar of our engines. It's half time, America."

Let's hope they can produce vehicles that can compete so the factories can keep people employed.

Like Eastwood. Too meldramatic for me. Prefered the racing dogs with the Sketchers. Thats what we may all need by summer. Running shoes.

Great patriotic ad, I agree, even though it's a bit disingenuous coming from a company that is majority owned by Fiat.

Not on my list of good commercials. judge by actions , not words. America is great, Chrysler doesn't even come close.
They will go out of business once again, the next time the economy hits a big pot hole.
Good mangement is not in the comic books they read...and Fiat would have never left the US market if quality had been part of its vocabulary.

>>Nothing cries American like a company 58.7 percent owned by Fiat where the cars are built in Ontario, Canada!

Clint Eastwood is a great actor and director in my opinion but he was "played" by Fiat and NObama into making the WORST commercial during the Super Bowl. He did a two minute socialist rant about an Italian Company!<<

Van_Halen;

Breath, you are hyperventilating or hypoxic. It'll be better this time next year after President Obama has started his second term. Disappointing the GnOP can't come up with a viable candidate for his replacement. The Silver Bullet you cling for is very tarnished, but I offer a shiny copper clad one for you misery.

Too bad they can't make cars as good as they make Super Bowl ads.

What is Chrysler? There is no such thing. Chrysler went away in 2008 along with General Motors. It is now Fiat and Chevy is now run my Obama Motors!

As a whole, the worst bunch of commercials I've ever had to endure, probably couldn't afford anything more for production after paying $3.5mm for the airtime.
