McCain Camp regarding "the One" ad: "a bookend to a week that we thought was very successful."

http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/08/mccain-campaign.html

<snip>

UPDATE: ABC News' Bret Hovell reports that McCain senior aide Nicole Wallace says of this web ad, “It was a communication to our supporters, and was a kind of a bookend to a week that we thought was very successful. Our intention to use a little bit of humor. I think campaigns can be mind-numbingly boring and brutal without a little bit of humor, so we’re proud to use a little bit of humor at the end of the week, especially on a Friday. And the more serious point for our supporters is that despite the size of his crowds, his celebrity and fans are nothing to be intimidated by as the underdog campaign. As the underdog campaign, sometimes the crowds aren’t 200,000 strong and roaring, but it’s just a different approach and style and imagery. We’re holding our own, and we’re very pleased with the way things are going and where we are.”

1. I can't say what I want to have happen to those fuckers, because
I don't want the law at my door.

2. If burying yourself in your own excrement is "successful"...
Then I guess, yeah, it was.

But remind me to NEVER party with these guys. ;)

9. They consider mocking, baseless lies as humor? And their proud of
this? I think this all reflects much more on McSame's character than it does on Obama.
