McCain's New Ad: Obama, Spears, & Hilton?

So, McCain has decided to take his campaign negative. No surprise, necessarily. Except, wow! What a dumb ad? The entire point of the ad (one assumes) is to bring attention to the fact that Obama is like a "rockstar". In McCain's mind, or in the mind of his handlers, this will give the appearance of (???) Folks, you'll have to tell me. Does he want to give us the impression that Obama is popular? He's already done that. When he insisted Obama travel and see the world (Iraq, specifically), we noticed how popular he was with many world leaders and citizens. Since, I don't want McCain to win, I'm not sure I care how he runs his campaign. But, give me a break. Obama was right to ask, is this the best you can come up with...

Please, dude. Fire someone. McCain's campaign is actually the one that's starting to look a bit inexperienced and lacking. Talk about poor judgment. We're witnessing chronic poor judgment on the part of John McCain. His party should cut him loose. Chalk up the 2008 elections as a democratic win and thank their lucky starts that he'll be forgotten shortly. McCain supporters are always quick to tell me that the race is tightening. I hate to admit it. They're right. But, the race isn't tightening because of America's great love of McCain. The race is tightening because of mistrust of Obama. If Obama can fix the trust issue, McCain will be cast off rather quickly (my personal opinion). Not to mention, I'd have a tough time listening to McCain for four years, so someone needs to do something.
