Like you Tim, the one I remember most was not a real ad. The National Lampoon magazine ran a satirical ad for Volkswagen, it showed a VW bug floating in water (they were known for their ability to float, like Ivory soap). The tag line was: If Ted Kennedy had been driving a Volkwagen, he'd be President today.
This was in reference to the fact that his involvement in the drowning of his "companion" in an auto accident ruined his chance at being Prez.
