		<description><![CDATA[By the way, great comment Hugh. 

The irony of Avis dropping their &#039;We Try Harder&#039; line is in fact due to the reason they no longer do try harder. I continue to be underwhelmed by them. The new try harder company?: Enterprise. Go see them. The kids there act like they own the business. You WANT to rent from them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This campaign could backfire and put off the very market segment Avis seeks to re-engage.

The businessmen depicted are the stereotypical old skool &#039;snake oil&#039; sales road warriors from a culture and time that referred to clients as &#039;muppets&#039;

I fear Avis will have to try even harder or else will become stars in their own disaster epic &#039;Lost in  space&#039;.]]></description>
