Have y'all seen this? It looks kind of lame to me.

Almost all the clips are from MSNBC. Nothing from CNN or FOX.

If this is the worst the McCain campaign can throw at Obama ...

1. It's a campaign of whiners.
McCain is simply pathetic.

3. Sorry - no refunds!
All I can suggest is - alert the mods and ask them to take down the video.

I'm sure it breaks all the rules (what with being GOP propaganda an' all) ;-)

4. That was a great ad FOR Obama!
It seemed to be more a promotional video for Obama's popularity than anything.

McLame is tone deaf.

11. Seriously...
This ad seemed really awkward. I kind of get what McCain was trying to say but at the same time it seemed to not attack Obama at all.

Most people who just tune into it will see a few seconds and not realize it's an anti-Obama ad to begin with.

6. A couple of days ago, I thought I'd send Obama a dollar
every time McCain lies about him. I realized that wouldn't work, as the limit is $2300.

8. I thought it was almost promotional for Obama! Music was great!
The funny thing is they are still trying to pass off Obama as a rock star or Messiah but many of those who believe he is the best choice for president are college educated and tend not to be easily influenced. It's pretty funny that this is all McCain has to go on that Obama is just "too" popular!

9. Yeah
I actually liked it. I don't really think it hurt Obama in any way whatsoever...

10. tone deaf indeed
They don't get it. A certain percentage of Americans just like to vote for the presumptive winner. Another percentage of Americans are going to vote for the candidate that has a groundswell, regardless of policies, just so that something gets done. McCain's people just sold those two substantial groups on Obama.

Great job!
