McCain Ad - The One





This ad strikes me as completely fair. It mocks Obama for his own words. When he clinched the nomination he said that this would be the moment that "the oceans began to recede" and "the planet began to heal itself", as if he were a savior. What candidate wouldn't use this as an example of their opponent's egomania. Of course, McCain can't run on this type of attack alone. He must develop substantive reasons why he is the better person to be president. Obama supporters who point to ads like this to claim that McCain is mean or is using the Republican attack machine really sound like whiners. For example, I wonder if Andrew Sullivan is capable of metioning the McCain campaign without using the word "Rovian" at least once.
