Wow, Bhusar, maybe it's non-substantive, covering matters that really don't make a damned bit of difference to the short-term or long-term future of this country. But I actually think that ad is the ugliest, nastiest piece of shit out of McCain thus far - and there's been a lot of ugly nasty shit already.
The unfortunate thing is that showing it to people to demonstrate just precisely the depths to which this unprincipled, deceitful and dishonest, manipulative POS has sunk simply serves his purpose by repeating the lies over and over and over.
I believe people HAVE to see this to see McCain for what he is, and any time any media outlet runs it - eve with commentary denouncing it - they'll be lambasted by many libs for doing just what McCain's people want. And, of course, ignoring it ALSO serves their purposes.
Having McCain's voice jump in at the end to say, "I'm John McCain and I approved this message" is the ONLY truly damning material in it.
Your right. This ad is so telling of him. He and his camp have not said one thing about issues. It is all of this crap. I thought he was a maverick. I hope Biden comes at him and hard like he did yesterday. Barack has to step it up. For a man in his 70s he is truly acting like a child.
