I'm glad we don't have adverts this lame in the UK. We just have to suffer through Party Political Broadcasts.

Good work getting the word old in there though.

Does anyone else think Obama sounds like DMX?

Video I'd pay to see:

"I just LOVE when dat oldy bring his whole crew. It’s just a bigger piece of cake for me to chew a hole through."

While I understand the Obama camp's desire to respond to McCain's lies, the black 'n white nonsense is getting old... in all these ads.

I'd love to see McCain with glowing red devil eyes instead Just kidding. In all seriousness would it hurt Obama just to ignore McCain's smears?

>> ^Razor:

If you consider losing the election as "hurting," yes McCain's smears could hurt Obama. He continuously smears Obama unjustifiably even though he himself is doubly guilty of his own claims, yet the media doesn't move their microscope away from Obama. (The stat from a recent MSNBC clip points out that all major news networks are critical of Obama 75% of the time and of McCain only 50%.)

When the American people, especially the ones already scared of Obama, hear nothing but a never-ending onslaught against Obama, it can't help to encourage more fears.

I'm actually completely surprised by your comment because I felt the exact opposite. I thought Obama's ad was really taking the high road by simply stating "All these reputable sources say McCain's ad is lying and McCain is simply trying to smear Obama," rather than launching an attack of his own. If using black & white and the word "old" is all Obama's ad is using to attack McCain, that's pretty classy.

Is it true that McCain can't raise his arms above chest level? How's he going to wave?

I'm sure whoever is working the strings just has to pull a little harder...

^I don't care who you are: That's funny right there.


I just love the political ads these days. They don't say anything specific.

"Same 'ol politics."
Whaddya mean?

"Same failed policies"
Which policies?

Obama gonna, "Tackle big oil"
Huh? Whatcha goin' do?

Ease our "dependence on foreign oil"
How, exactly?

C'mon. At least pretend to understand that some of us want a little substance.

Yes, it would. Smears should be answered swiftly, those that don't tend to stick. See swiftboating from 2004. It was completely false, and went unanswered, and people STILL often talk about it as if it's the truth.

This one cleverly managed to sneak a shot in (he's old!!), but mostly comes across as positive. Well done.

Wow. You can't tell what they mean by "same old politics" (ie the reason the ad exists?) or "same failed policies" (ie. the primary differences regarding iraq and afghanistan that are talked about constantly)? Do you live in a cave or are you working to be this ignorant?

I noticed you picked on the one most general idea out of a number of quite specific proposals, as if they're all vague and then you fail to see the connection between developing alternative energy and breaking dependence on foreign oil. Wow.

You failed in every regard in watching this ad. I sincerely hope the average person is smarter than you. Coz that's pretty funny, right there.

Who's the cat who'll give tax back,

Anticipating the utterly predictable 'o noes but teh medya tis biased' response from the McCain campaign.

Oh and here's more 'comic relief' from McCain: http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/08/04/mccain-camp-mocks-obamas-comment-on-inflated-tires/
