Subliminal Message Anyone?

I was recently helping a friend with her assignment by looking up commercials on YouTube, and I stumbled upon this interesting M&M's Commercial. I won't give the hidden message away, watch the video and then leave a comment once you have found the message (if you are not the first to leave a comment, watch the video first before reading comments).

I know that this is not the first commercial ever to place subliminal messages in their advertisement of a product, but this one was just so out there (for me anyway) I just had to post right away and see what others think about it.

  1. The hidden message was obvious to me.
    The female (green) M&M made the comment about working the poles, and to most people that is something that most politicans do, work the poles, etc.
    But what made it more "iffy" to me was the sexual innuendo behind "working the poles", like she's some hootchie or something. I also don't think it helps that the female M&M (only 1 of 5 is a female) is made to look sexual (full lips and heels, etc.).
    It's just an example of how society precieves women.
