CNN

I am 66 years old and have never seen a campaign as mismanaged and negative as McCan's( especially at this point in time). Although I am a strong Obama supporter, I am disappointed that McCain has either panicked, or is getting Rovian advise to use the big lies and be as negative as possible. Why the disappointment? Because, McCain promised a real and intelligent debate on the serious issues that face the country.

He has reneged on that promise. Changed his position so many times on so many issues that you need a score card to keep up, and begs the question as to whether he is up to the task of managing a complex system like the Federal Government. As a senior, not far behind McCain, it's increasing said to witness. I would hate to see his increasing confusion and slips lead to a 3AM moment that drops bombs on Prague.

Cry Baby McCane is soo insecure and Jealous, all he can do is react to Obama's every word and movement with whinning and complaints.
He is in distress and screaming for help.. lol

He has no visions of his own. He just finds fault with any and everything Obama does. Its getting to be very obvious that McPain is not only feeling inaequate, He truely is an inadequate person for the Job of President.

His short little Napoleon size ego is whinning and crying daily. He is a Pittyful old fart, who has already peaked and climaxed but is too senile to realize it.

I can't wait to vote in November. I think the Secret Servie should watch Barack's back when he comes home.

There are so many jealous people online. They think because they want it so, that we're going to fall inline behind a lame candidate who yells at clouds. Not going to happen, no way, no how.

Obama 08

Well, apprarently Germans can't hear him yelling at the clouds over here, so McCain has to buy some air time and– yell at the clouds over there.

This is too funny.

News Flash: Nobody cares about a candidate of a party who is responsible for $4.00 gas prices, the foreclosers, Enron, the Katrina fiasco, and a financial advisor who says we're a bunch of "whiners". Did you also see the latest tape of Bush saying that Wall Street has a hangover, and that his wife is buying a big new home in Houston? He's a moron, and so are the people who vote for Mini Me McBush.

Actung baby. Mccain sucks, He is always one step behind Obama. And has nothing to offer but attacks, and lies without substance, He just recycles bush policy's.

BARACK THE VOTE!!!!!!!!

BARACK / SEBELIUS 08

McCain is the one who didn't stand up for veterans when he wrote Bush a blank check to wage war in Iraq.

I thought it was funny when he got off the plane in New Hampshire and there was one reporter. I think he should hire a press corp. That way, he can look more presidential.

Bush has to fight for attention as well. When he was in Africa everyone wanted to know about Barack. He had to turn the attention back to himself.

Funny, funny, funny.

Obama 08

YYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

McSenile is losing it and it is only July. We have about 3.5 months to go and this guy is breaking down by the second. He spends all of his time talking about Obama. No positivity whatsoever. Keep up the bad work McSame.

Obama/Sebelius 2008/2012.

These attacks didn't work for Hill-girl-ly. This is a new day, a new year.

So what makes MC Cannon think it's going to work for him.

Take your butt whipping like a man and stop whinning.

Yep, he's jealous. Ads in Germany? Now who's campaigning over there. He can't stand that Barack is in the spotlight.

Oh well, I think his rating in Germany is very low. So they don't want him to be president anymore than most Americans.

Obama 08

Wooo!!! I live in Berlin and can't wait to see the stupid John McCain ad. McCain should give up on Wisconsin. Wisconsin = Blue State!!!

this is insane! why can't someone do fact check on this before it is allowed in the public? this man is a maniac!! he is ruining himself with his own party but less the rest of the world. he needs to be doubled checked on every word that comes from his mouth.

Why is my comparison of John McCain to Mr Magoo in moderation??? Does the truth of an old man yelling at the clouds hit too close to home CNN and McSame supporters???

Poor mcain i kinda feel sorry for him maybe just maybe if he had some policies of his own rather than THE BUSH POLICIES,He may get some more attention but what i still cant get over is the fact mccain pushed and pushed obama to do this trip and now hes WHINING!!! seems to me mccain tried to put obama in a political trap to fail and it backfired oh poor poor mccain.

Half of the posters here missed the point. He's not advertising in Germany. He's advertising in American cities named Berlin. It's a little bit of humor. Chill out.

Maybe McCain should concentrate on issues here in the U.S. instead of trying to throw rocks at Obama from across the Atlantic.

Oh yeah, McCain has no answers or solutions for America.

Go ahead GOP and waist your money. The people in Germany favor Obama something like 73% to McBush 27%. It's a done deal and McSame and the GOP know it, your days are numbered. The whole world can not wait unit Bush is out of office and Obama is President.

Obamanation '08

YES WE CAN!

Typical rubbish from John McBush McSame... Lies...misrepresentations...distortions...and more bald faced lies. Nothing new here. Same old tired conservative crap from a tired old creep of a candidate.

How much more pathetic could the Republicans get... Well..I'm sure they'll find away. If there's a lower level than the one they're currently exploring, they'll find it. But then we shouldn't be surprised that bottom-feeders dwell in the muck! It's their natural element.

The American public is a lot smarter than the Washington Republicans think. That is what they fail to realize and that is why they won't win the White House back this GE.

OBAMA '08

Haha! That's the funniest news I've read in a while. I wonder how long it took them to come up with that.

Once again proof that all McCain is capable of is to react to what Obama is doing:

1. Obama was first to say that we need to talk with our enemies and was viciously attacked for it by McCain, who called it "naive" and "appeasement". Now the Bush administration is doing exactly that, and McCain quietly supports it.

2. Obama has always favored a timeline for an Iraq withdrawal. Now McCain supports it too, only he cleverly calls it a "time horizon". I'm glad that got pointed out, so now even stupid voters like me will know that a time horizon will definitely lead to victory in Iraq, whereas a "timeline" will result in utter defeat.

3. Obama has always said, as early as 2002, that the Iraq war is a bad idea, mainly because it diverts our attention from the real terrorist haven, Afghanistan. McCain now reluctantly admits that more troops are needed there, but only after the recent deadly attacks on U.S. soldiers. And if he were in charge of sending soldiers there, chances are they'd show up late because a delay at the Iraq/Pakistan border.

WOW!!

Rejoice, rejoice America for in the Holy Land upon a hill your

"MESSIAH" declared himself ! Let him be known as:

"BARACK OBAMA" the great,,,and he shall overrule you

with an iron fist. Down with your Military Commanders and

take ye your rank and file with you...from this time forward he

will lead invisible armies and the world shall obey.

"GO FORTH MEDIA AND SPREAD HIS WORD....!!!!!

***************************************************************************

I thought he was going to focus on the economy this week? Guess not...

Old Old Old fool has lost his mine

What is a "battleground state"? Please, inform me ; I thought the "real fighting" was going on, in the Middle East..........for oil! ......... not here, for mire votes!

this coming from the guy who just thanked BUSHfor the drop in oil prices So much for being his own man.

Grandpa McWar is telling lies about Obama. He is trying to hide from us his intentions of perpetuating the Bush disaster on our country. But Americans are smarter than he thinks and he will fail.

nevermind ,i guess

MCCAIN GO HOME AND RETIRE AND ENJOY ALL YOUR WIFE MONEY. IF I COULD SPEND $750 A MONTH, CINDY SPENDS $750,000 PER MONTH, WHO IS THE ELISTIST. OBAMA IS YOUNG AND SHARP, ALL MCCAIN CAN DO NOW IS ATTACK OBAMA, HE LOOKS DESPERATE AND IT'S NOT WORKING, MCCAIN YOUR NEGATIVE RATES WILLL GO UP.

Senator John Mccain, needs to focus his whole attention on the issues.....too much attacks, always comes back to hurt....he needs to learn from HRC......people are suffering.......he needs to talk only about them.....they will come to him.....not by attack, attack, attack.....it does not work when people are suffering...Senator, change your tactics

This RNC advertisement is laughable! McCain has voted against many recent bills intended to help our troops.

We PUMAs won't drink the Republican Kool-Aid anymore, and we won't just fall in to line behind McCain! NoMcCain! The Republicans have dissed us for the last time! We will rally at the RNC convention to protest their treatment of our loyal party members. I, for one, will be voting for Obama - and let that be a lesson to the Republicans!!!

PUMAs 4 Obama!

What a crock! How is no one talking about McCain's inexcusable voting record on veterans benefits??

McShame:
The only thing that you are ready to lead in is a
LIE, another LIE, and Lie some more...what a complete IDIOT you are...get a new campaign team so that you can keep up.
BARACK THE VOTE AMERICA !!!

Cute. Clever. Nothing more.

Obama – imitator of JFK. He can't measure up, he can't be original. One big copycat.

Hey! What about Berlin Connecticut. I used to live in Connecticut and feel slighted. Read a recent blog stating McCain is running out of gas. Impossible! OLD FARTS NEVER RUN OUT OF GAS. i am 73 and am an authority.

McCain is becoming as pitiful and desperate as as Hillary did......the truth is you just can't compete with Obama....He's brilliant in every way.

Obama is ready to lead. Lead us out of Iraq. Lead us straight to a recession with his tax increases. Lead us straight into a diplomatic quagmire by negotiating with state-sponsors of terrorist organizations. Lead us straight into France and Germany's arms – nothing like a nice European group hug. Lead us towards higher gas prices by capitualating on drilling and other sources of alternative energy. Lead us towards record deficits as he implements his socialized medicine/healthcare plan. So it's wrong to say he won't lead us – it's WHERE he'll lead us that is troubling.

Please vote for McCain. I make WMD's for a living and with the economy the way it is im afraid Ill lose my job.

John McCain needs to quit. This is Obama's time. If it were him who was overseas, he wouldn't want Obama raining on his parade. This is sad to wee.

As a German citizen, I am disgusted by Obama's planned speech in Tiergarten. Of course, the usual suspects (greens, young socialists, etc) will be there for his speech in droves. These unemployed social misfits will use any chance to protest America and the free market. Pathetic.

"A clever way to gain some national press." I don't think so.

The smell of desperation is coming off the MCain campain in waves and there is nothing they can do to stop the press from focusing on Barack Obama and his Berlin speech.

Thank you, Sen. McCain for goading Sen. Obama into this trip overseas. The results have been priceless. Got any more good ideas?

God Bless Sen Obama and God Bless America

McBush – all buzz and no substance!

There is lot of difference between a baby taking the first step, and a grown up taking a walk. The media knows that better, and so all the media hype around Obama's foreign trip.

McLame, President of laaaame...

This is clever? With a campaign like this, McCain couldn't be elected student council president.

John McCain looks more like Mr Magoo everday!!! LOL!!!!

If Barack Obama does get back to the states soon, poor John McCain is going to kill over. This trip is really stressing the poor man out.

He is not getting any media coverage or attention and that really has him on edge.

I, for one, have had enough of this sneekiness and deception with Bush, now McCain is just doing more of the same. Does the Republican party think we Americans are stupid?
Meet the new boss,
Same as the old boss ...
Won't get fooled again!

Like a fart in a gale force wind. I love seeing the RNC flush its money.

Clever man. LOL. Call it thinking outside the box.

Will McSame tell the people in Berlin that:

He voted for the war without the "fact finging" process that he accuses Obama of not having.

He supported the war even before 9/11

He was against drilling in ANWR and the continental shelf.. yet now he will drill anywhere and let the earth's climate system go into a creash

He was against Bush's tax cuts but now says they are terrific and wants more... by the way this is a big cause for the deficits and that translates in to the dollar crash.

Will he tell them that he doesn't think women should get insurance coverage for birth control, yet viagra is ok?

Will he tell you that he was against torture and now he thinks some kinds are ok...

Will he tell you that he voted against the legislation Obama supported, which give veterans more education benefits for our veterans.... he said it would give current military people and insentive to leave for the hope of an education...Seems he doesn't think 3 plus deployments are enough.

Maybe McSame should tell the American people what he thinks "Victory" means and how he is going to reverse the economic disaster we are facing..... Oh he doesn't know much about this... so he will sling mud I guess.

Obama 08

Who is this angry, senile old man trying to fool?

Veterans groups give Obama higher marks than McBush!

He even opposed the new GI bill.

McShame isn't for veterans he is for endless war!

His temperment should exclude him from the highest office in this great nation.

WHY AREN'T THE COMMENTS IN THESE LINKS BEING UPDATED FOR VIEWING?

WOW

HOW CAN THEY SAY ALL THAT WITH A STRAIGHT FACE.

EVERYTHING I EVER READ OBAMA HAS BEEN MORE SUPPORTIVE TO THE TROOPS THAN Mc CAIN.

WHEN IS Mc CAIN GOING TO TALK ABOUT WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO INSTEAD OF BASHING OBAMA?

I THOUGHT THIS WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A CIVAL ELECTION. (REMEMBER Mc CAIN.)

OBAMA WOULD NEVER STOOP SO LOW BUT GHEESE BUY THE Mc CAIN BIOGRAGHY AND START BASHING.

So I wonder how accurate these statements are? After the "Obama caused the increase in gas prices" ad I believe the McCain campaign is getting desparate in mixing a good bunch of fiction with very little or marginal fact.

I wonder how PolitiFact.com would rate this one?

A South Carolinian for Obama!

Everyone across the world loves Obama, but they despise McCain.

Big Surprise, McBush is copying Obama. This guy is pathetic!!

Obama '08

I don't get it. I wish this guy would stop with the gimmicks and get real.

Couldn't we have used the billions of dollars that are unnacounted for towards body armor?

Are we seeing signals of DESPERATION from McShame ? To place ads in towns called "Berlin" in our country sounds awfully bad, and all those misstatments can back fire big time. Remember, the american people is very well informed right now, thanks to Internet. OBAMA 2008-2016 !!!

"VO: There are few votes as important as funding our men and women in uniform."

Defense funding votes McCain has not supported in the past year:
HR 2642 6/26/08 Iraq and Afghanistan War Funding and GI Bill
S Amendment 4818 5/22/08 Funding for Ops in Iraq & Afghanistan
S Con Res 70 3/14/08 Concurrent Budget Resolution
HR 4986 1/22/08 Defense Authorizations Bill
HR 4156 11/16/07 Supplimental Appropriations for the DoD & Timeline
S 2340 11/16/08 Emergency Supplimental Appropriations for the DoD

During that time, McCain only supported one defense funding bill. Obama supported 3 of the seven bills over the past year – that's three times as many as McCain. Unbelievable! Does the McCain camp think the American voter is stupid?

Are you sure McClueless isn' t just confused about which Berlin Obama is making a speech? You know, this guy isn't the sharpest cookie in the picnic.

McCain has to do something but at least he could have waited for Obama to come back to the U.S. before attacking him. Otherwise what his ad says it the same ol same ol.

Obama is acting like a President and McCain is acting like a spoiled kid trying to get more attention.

All John "I'll NEVER surrender" McCain has to offer on anything are gimmicks... this is news? Do you HAVE anything but "Obama says..."?

The REAL NEWS today should be how McWar's twin brother Dubbya's policies for strategic missile defense systems in eastern Europe have provoked Prime Minister V. Putin to state that by the time that happens, Russia will, once again, have missiles in CUBA.

Perhaps McGaffe could contact the head of Germany (nope, wait, that was ANOTHER mistake McCain made) and negotiate something up for us? Divert a Cuban Missile Crisis? Nah.

G. "DUMB" Bush is scary enough. John "DUMBER" McCain is even scarier. Can you imagine either handling a Cuban Missile Crisis? McCain will tell you "I know how to win wars. I KNOW HOW TO WIN WARS!".... yikes.

I still remember the Cuban Missile Crisis, sir. I remember the weekly testing in schools where we would hunker down beneath our desks and hope we'd survive "the BIG one".... I remember JFK getting us through it.

John McCain, you are NO Jack Kennedy.

it would be incredible if mccain were to be so gracious and helpful to our veterans, unfortunately, with his 100 year war plan most of our troops now wont live to see the veteran status.

mccain should not be losing his temper and hitting people from berlin.he probably thinks berliners are mexicans.

IRAN 'S LEADERS BELLIGERENT DRIVE TO ACQUIRE NUCLEAR
WEAPONS IS ON A COLLISION COURSE WITH ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES.. IN OUR OWN BACKYARD , HUGO CHAVEZ DRIVE
TO GAIN HEGEMONY IN LATIN AMERICA SPURRED BY OIL WEALTH AND THE ACQUIRING OF MODERN WEAPONS FROM RUSSIA , INCLUDING A SUBMARINE , IS A THREAT AND WILL PUT VENEZUELAN REGIME ON A COLLISION COURSE WITH THE U.S. FACED WITH THESE DANGERS, WE WOULD BE WISE TO ELECT A STRONG NO NONSENSE COMMANDER IN CHIEF LIKE SENATOR JOHN McCAIN..

obama voted for the new gi bill for vets. mccain did not support our veterans.he wants our troops to fight and die ,then gives them nothing when they come home.puhleeeze,this ad is nothing but lies,again.

Promoting his 100 year war huh....

Would make a good rap art at most.
Keep your day job cos I dont think this will sell to anybody sensible.
Is your McShame not the one opposing giving college grants to vets?
Its a shame you are mono-eyed and cant see wider than what you perceive good for McGizzar.

He forgot Berlin, CT ! I'm sorry, this is lame.

OMG!

How do you spell desperate and pathetic???

You spell them both: M C C A I N.

I think it is telling that McCain is making rounds and taking punches at town hall meetings in America while Obama orates over in Europe in front of friendly crowds and teleprompters. Obama doesn't have the manhood to address real questions from real people.

Everything in this commercial is demonstrably a distortion of the facts. And McCain voted against the GI bill because he said that if we give our veterans the means to have a good life outside the military, they might decide to leave the military.

McCain is a hypocrite and has treated our military personnel horribly. McCain is no friend to the military.

Barack Obama is ready to lead, John mccain is not!

Hey John.....what's up with voting for the new GI bill? WHY DIDN'T YOU SUPPORT OUR TROOPS??@@@!!

Karl Rove type of ads. No dignity no substance. Slash and burn!

european capital! clearer language should be used here. i.e the german capital

My understanding is that the McCain campaign is trying to spend funds contributed during the primary season prior to the end of the month (in line with his acceptance of public financing for the general). Apparently they were unable to resist throwing money away on this foolishness to satisfy their funny bone. This is how an underdog changes into another kind of dog: Goofy.

Lets not forget it was a powerful military and military backed foreign policy that broke down the wall in Berlin.

We need to apply the same resolve to Iraq, Palestine, and Libya to establish democratic governments and allies.

Mccain needs to focus on his own message and campaign instead of attacking Obama. Mccain cant get his own message out with making yet another gaffe. All he does is attack Obama. Mccain is crazy. He going to these town hall meetings telling the public that the surge has succeeded but we need to stay in Iraq because if we left it could be extremely dangerous. If he's worried about danger shouldn't he be concentrating on the capture of Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda who killed nearly 4,000 Americans on U.S. soil? The truth is Mccain is too old and confused and some of the times I don't think he remembers what he said.

CAN'T WIN VOTES HERE, FIGURES HE'LL TRY OVER THERE BUT I THINK HE WILL LOSE THERE TO.

WASTE FRAID AND ABUSE OF YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS!!

HOW WILL THIS GAIN SUPPORT OR VOTES HERE. KEEP SUPPORTING THE OLD GOAT AND THIS NONSENSE

Great, we get to listen to another speech from Obama. When will he start doing something on his own, besides being the rock star politician.

Childish ... if not just plain lame.

John McCain, get a new campaign staff!

Mccain needs to focus on his own message and campaign instead of attacking Obama. Mccain can get his own message out with making yet another gaffe and all he does is attack Obama. Mccain is crazy. He going to these town hall meetings telling the public that the surge has succeeded but we need to stay there in Iraq because if we left it could be extremely dangerous. If he's worried about danger shouldn't he be concentrating on the capture of Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda who killed nearly 4,000 Americans on U.S. soil? The truth is Mccain is too old and confused and some of the times I don't think he remembers what he said.

Hey republicans try and promote McCain for what he is, instead of attacking like a sick puppy

thanks god we have Ron Paul this year

Yeah, just make sure that McCain realizes that he is not in Germany. People may get a bit confused if he says "Ich bin ein Berliner". Then again, it may be the least stupid thing he will have said in a while.

how many people live in these towns, and will it compare to a world stage, i don't think so, unless there are millions of poeple living in the three towns of Berlin.

Wow thats kind of lame.

Am I the only one realizing that the Republicans are kind of jealous of Obama's appeal overseas? This trip has been a success for Obama no matter how much others try to downplay it.

Whoop-dee-freaking-hoo

Mcfool is deeply frustrated with Obamas success. Go away Mcidiot with your foolish repug lines. Am a true republican and truthful republicans supports Obama wholeheartedly

They forget to tell us that without some stupids our troops would've never showed up in Iraq. So there wouldn't be any need for rehab programs. No need for more ammu and weapons. Hups, I forgot. RNC is big buddies with the so called "defense" industry. Well, that would explain their stupid ad. That would explain why some stupids still tell us, we can win this war. Get in in your brains ... most of the people of Iraq DO NOT want us to be there. Even if we stay there for 100 years and it will be still the same.

Oh they are struggling. McCain is not offering anything new. He spends 90% of his time attacking Obama. I almost felt bad for him the other day when there was only 1 reporter and 1 photographer greeting him in NH, but then I remembered that it is his campaign tactics and policies that are causing him to be in the position he is in.

i think john Mcain and the campaingn team are confuse!?

Oh please! McSame and RNC get a life!

That ad is just so stupid in its conception and its airing timing.

All McCain seems to do is attack

now i know what his presidency will be like

Can we say Distraction?

McCain is ready to lead alright.... right into the next 100 year war. McCain can't even remember his own lines, how can he remember correctly what Senator Obama did or didn't do? Senator Obama has not been met with resistance anywhere, he is touching on everything that is important to all countries. Obama is consistent with his message of a CHANGE IS GOING TO COME FOR THE BEST OF EVERYONE. Senator Obama will lead us in peace and prosperity.

Senator McCain, CNN won't let me post to the article so I'm going this way. DO NOT concider Pewlenty for your VP.........

This is really sad to take this type of non-sense overseas. McCain, shame on you. You are acting like a child. You should respect the fact that someone is attempting to make it better for the americans and as well as other nations. If you want to fight, keep it in our country. Sick old man.

I FORGOT ONE MORE THING.

OBAMA WOULD SEND OUR SOLDIERS WHERE NEEDED

TO DEFEND OUR NATION, NOT TO FETCH OIL FOR HIS

OILMEN, AT THE EXPENSE OF THEIR LIVES & OUR ECONOMY.

OK, so the best ad the GOP can put together starts with breaking down the competitor instead of solidly stating McCain's positions and voting record?

The scared right wing noise machine. Always at work to scare the undicided and republicans alike. Scarrrryyyyyyyy

McCain McCain McCain...LMAO!

Doing a quick search, the only bill I found that Obama voted against was S.2340 titled, "A bill making emergency supplimental appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiacal year ending September 30, 2008, and for other purposes."

I do not know the specifics of the bill or the rationale for voting against it. Does someone out there know? Two comments, however:

First comment: It takes a lot of gall for someone who did not vote for the new GI bill to accuse Obama of not supporting our troops.

Second comment: Guess what – MCCAIN ALSO DID NOT VOTE FOR S. 2340. T

Mccain, you are the one that voted against GI bills five to be exact. Your the one who supported this senseless war.

hahahahahahahahah what a waste of money.

FYI:

We're ignoring McCain't here in Wisconsin. We like 100% real cheese not some outdated, imitation cheese product in a can called Cheez Whiz .

CNN reports the truth in some articles, just not the ticker.

As for the economic arena, crude oil production is below U.S. goals, even though it has "improved for short periods," the GAO report said. Goals for water service are "close to being reached," but the daily electricity supply "met only slightly more than half of demand in early July 2008."

OBAMA SUPORTS THE SOLDIERS BY PAYING FOR

1) COLLEGE TUITION, HELPING THOSE THAT NEED TO

2) GET OFF THE STREETS OF AMERICA,

3) BETTER MEDICAL CARE, FOR THEM & THEIR FAMILIES.

4) BETTER EQUIPMENT, WHEN IN SERVICE.

MCSLEAZO SUPPORTS THE WAR, NOT OUR SOLDIERS.

SUPPORTING THE SOLDIERS, HIS QUOTE "TOO GENEROUS"

There they go again – playing DIRTY POLITICS!!! When McCain was visiting other countries did Obama send "SMEAR ads"???

When will the Republicans realize that the WORLD already knows what they are about and "sees through" their tactics and SMEARS. It means NOTHING and adds to the dislike these countries already have towards them!!! They want to see CHANGE!!!

John McCain is definitely going to get more AIR TIME if he and his supporters continue the SMEAR attacks against Obama. The differnece is – it's going to be BAD AIR TIME!!!!

It would nice to see the RNC and McCain camp reach out to Berlin in Europe in addition to the ones in the States. This could contrast the misguided flyer McCain sent out yesterday needlessly taunting Europeans in France. At this critical time, it is important that our next president works towards stengthening our alliances again in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and other parts of the world, not further any perceived isolation from the past seven years.

It is also worth noting that veteran organizations give McCain a D rating on his voting record against many of their causes, including opposition to the recent GI Bill. Obama received a B+ for his support of veteran causes, and he voted in favor of the bipartisan GI Bill.

LOL

McBush has one foot in the grave, politically and physically. Lie all you want John, it's not going to work this time.

mcWAR is making a fool o himself.He shamelessly feeds the electorate with lies.Pitiful!

Yawn.

Is this a joke?

On a side note, this PUMA crap is, well crap. The self described 2.5 million movement is really going to try to derail Obama, really? They are really going to derail the chance of a democrat in office, really? They are willing to put McCain in office, really? When you self described PUMA's complain about the cost of Health Insurance, the cost of fuel, the cost of food, the never ending occupation in Iraq, then you should complain amongst yourselves because people like me will resent you and your selfishness. Whether democrats control congress or not there will be many conservative members of the democratic party in there and if McCain becomes Pres you can't forget the power of the veto. You will hault progress!

IN THE MCBUSH CLUB

MULTI MILLIONAIRES------–WINNERS

WORKING AMERICANS-----–WHINERS.

John McCain is absolultely pathetic. For the past few days I have not heard one single policy of his but just constant attacks against Obama who's not even in the U.S. to combat these false attacks. McCain knew that Obama has the integrity not to attack is opponent on foreign soil that's what makes McCain's antics lately even more pathetic and ridiculous. Why can't McCain share in more detail his non-existant economic policies? I sure would like to hear more than what I've been hearing, i.e. a stupid gas-tax holiday and more drilling. What's his health care plan? What's his plan regarding the housing market?

THIS CONTINUES TO BE LAUGHABLE.

MCCAIN THREW DOWN THE GAUNTLET OF NOT VISITING IRAQ OR THE MIDDLE EAST AND NOW HE'S CRYING BECAUSE OBAMA NOT ONLY PICKED IT UP, BUT IS SLAPPING HIM AROUND WITH IT!!

HE AND HIS CAMPAIGN CAN ONLY BLAME THEMSELVES THAT OBAMA IS REPRESENTING HIMSELF AND AMERICA WELL AND LOOKING PRESIDENTIAL.

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR MCCAIN. YOU JUST MIGHT GET IT.

With a strategy like that, how can the GOP possibly loose in November? (I ask with much sarcasm)

McCain would you please chill? You are really coming across as a desperate old man trying to stay in the news in any way he can. Instead of making news you're forcing it. Please go sit down somewhere!!

Getting pretty desperate aren't we mcwar?

More rhetoric as usual. I guess Mccain camp has selective amnesia too....Remember John, you voted against the GI bill....

Idiot!!

MCBUSH LOVES THE MILITARY FOR WHAT IT CAN GIVE HIM.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

HE VOTED NO ON VET COLLEGE TUITION AND OUR VETERANS

ARE ROAMING THE STREETS OF AMERICA HOMELESS.

THIS MINDLESS BIGOT IS LOYAL TO ABSOLUTELY

NO ONE BUT THE $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

A GERIATRIC VERSION OF BUSH.

CNN OUT OF THE TOP FOUR PRESS RELEASES THREE PERTAIN TO OBAMA. ONE TO McCAIN. DO YOU NOT SEE THE DISPARITY OF YOU MEDIA PEOPLE. WE KNOW WHO YOU'RE BACKING SO QUIT TRYING TO CONVINCE US TO FOLLOW SUIT. YOU PEOPLE ARE LIKE OBAMA'S SUPPORTERS, JUST A PACK OF JACKALS.

Again McSame, this will not work... Come up with a new strategy because noone is listening to this or you!!!

Obama '08

Once again, the McCrypt campaign tries to blame Obama for the ignorance of the Republican candidate. Just like the Pakistan/Iraq border. One would think, that after 8 trips to the area he would at least REMEMBER that! It is becoming apparant that his campaign cannot keep up with the "senior minutes" or keep his lies sorted out.

So, once again, this is more proof McCrypt is in the early stages of dementia with short term memory loss or is just a flat out liar.

Question: Is the the man you want attempting ANYTHING at 3:00 A,M that does not involve Viagra?

What a line of B.S. speaking of habitual liar which he keeps repeating and addin on moe bs ,a jealous flip flopper ,senile McLost is all that and more of the same.
Go back home great Grandpa Muiss Cindy has your cot ready.

Less than 10% of Germans believe McCain would make a better president – according to Cafferty on CNN.

RNC should save their money so they can provide more "whine and geez" at the convention. At least that will be useful.

IT'S A GOOD THING HE IS NOT "IN" GERMANY.

MCSENILE TRIED HARD TO MAKE PUTIN THEIR PRESIDENT.

YOU'VE GOT TO GOOGLE THAT.

HE GOES THROUGH A WHOLE SPEECH CALLING PUTIN

THE GERMAN PRESIDENT WITHOUT BATTING AN EYE.

THIS MAN COULD NOT PAS THE GED IF HIS MISERABLE

LIFE & MONEY DEPENDED ON IT. WE HAVE TRIED STUPID

DISHONEST, WITH CATASTROPHIC RESULTS. WE & OUR

ECONOMY ARE IN CRITICAL CONDITION. WE CAN NOT

AFFORD A GERIATRIC BUSH FOR PRESIDENT, FOLKS.

IT'S NOT US AGAINST THEM.

IT'S US AGAINST AN IMMINENT DISASTER,

IF WE DON'T CHANGE COURSE, IMMEDIATELY.

McCain should spend more time concern how he should over come the numerous gaffs he is making, that the media continues to dismiss....and less time trying to steal Obama's thunder. McCain is looking more and more desperate.

Ludicrous!!!
Pettiness and fact distortions will not save your flawed campaign, John McCain.
You are toast.

This is so sad. He has to pull this gimmick to grab headlines from Obama.

Poor McBush, nobody interested in what he says, when he says it and how he says it.......... watching paint dry is more exciting.....

DESPERATION AT IT'S HIGHEST.

Another shockingly dishonest ad from Gramps McCain (especially considering he got a D from a Vet's Group while Obama got B+). What does the press do? Just chuckles.

What a tacky come back by McLame and the Jesusland puritans..This old goat is getting some bad advice.

When McCain challenged Obama to go to the Middle East and ridiculed him for his lack of experience, in his opinion, what did he think would happen. Did he think that Obama would not go to the Middle East, did he not know the buzz all over the world about his candidacy after he became the Democratic Primary winner. His campaign blundered yet again in lacking foresight. Any entry level marketing exe. would have known what to expect. Now they scramble to get some of the spot light back after exercising yet poor judgment again.

Great, what about Berlin, CT?

McCain voted against a number of bills supporting our veterans.
Barack supported better armor protection for our troops.
Barack was against multiple tours of duty which hurt our soldiers families back home.
McCain has his facts wrong with events in Iraq and Afghanistan.

By the way, Barack was just overseas supporting our soldiers.
Barack has accomplished more in three days than Republicans have in 7-1/2 years.
Republicans practice political criticism beyond the water's edge. Barack has stayed away from criticixing Bush or McCain during this trip.

More people will trust Obama's judgment over McCain's.

this ad is a joke....everyone knows Mcsame is the one who OPPOSES veteran's benefits. i think he was having another one of his senior moments when he approved this crap.....lol

Once again, the McCrypt campaign tries to blame Obama for the ignorance of the Republican candidate. Just like the Pakistan/Iraq border. One would think, that after 8 trips to the area he would at least REMEMBER that! It is becoming apparant that his campaign cannot keep up with the "senior minutes" or keep his lies sorted out.

So, once again, this is more proof McCrypt is in the early stages of dementia with short term memory loss or is just a flat out liar.

Question: Is the the man you want attempting ANYTHING at 3:00 A,M?

Wasn't it the John McSenile campaign that said Obama should not be campaigning overseas because they don't vote in our election. Now the RNC is spending money for ads in these countries, is this major flip-flopping.This ad is like pour money in a rat hole, the people over there will love Obama and he has the press to show the love. McSenile had one news person in New Hampshire ?This is funny. Connie from Indiana

That sounds like a pretty dumb idea to me.

For more maturity, see pre-schoolers.

i guess mccain thinks wwII just ended, or the berlin wall is still standing. someone better remind him that there is no longer a east berlin.

This is funny and orders on xenophobia.

My only hope is that the target audience of this tripe will take a little visit to factcheck.org before they make any conclusions.

Another Gaffe from McCain!
This was McCain Last Night on CBS: McCain was talking about was caused the reduction of violence in iraq:
"I don't know how you respond to something that is as — such a false depiction of what actually happened," McCain said. "Colonel MacFarland was contacted by one of the major Sunni sheiks. Because of the surge we were able to go out and protect that sheik and others. And it began the Anbar awakening. I mean, that's just a matter of history."

The Anbar Awakening began 6 months before the Surge!
The 90,000+ Paid sunnis also contributed!!! Google it and read about it. It was a collective effort, NOT JUST the increase in troops!
Stating the facts does not take credit from out troops, they did a great job! But it was not only them, it was the IRAQ people also!
So stop exagerating the facts and STOP LYING about the surge to gain Political points!
He claims OBAMA would rather win an election that win a war,
Well it looks like McCain would rather change history and lie about the facts in order to win an election.

AttaK Attack Attack. Does McCain and the RNC have any of their own policies, solutions, or ideas to talk about to make this country better?

By running the ad in cities named Berlin the same day that Obama will be giving a speech makes the republicans look very very weak and afraid.

Dear Senator McCain,
How dare you criticize Senator Obama about military funding, claiming he was playing politics? It was YOUR political agenda that got us into the quagmire in the first place. It was YOUR vote who sent our troops off to be killed and disabled. It was YOUR vote that sent us to war unprepared. It was YOU who didn't support an expanded GI Bill. YOU are the one who continues to ignore the facts of the war and letting your own delusional ideas guide your decisions.

Sincerely,
Nick

Too bad the ad is a lie. I'm sorry, who voted for the GI Bill of Rights and who voted against it?

Be careful what you ask for, J Mac- with all of this press on you, the completely ineptitude of your campaign is about to come under the harsh spotlight. Mazel Tov.

When are the media REALLY going to hold McNothing accountable. It's an 'offensive' move to put the media on edge by claiming Obama is getting so much more media attention than McNothing but the real scrutiny has never hit the ageless wonder. If the media were REALLY doing their job, they would have sliced McCain over his 'traitor' comment regarding Obama being more interested in winning a campaign than winning the Iraq war which is SHAMELESS. But nothing could have beaten his campaign's statement about Obama at Yad Vashem, the Holocoust Museum in Israel, claiming Obama is lying when he says "Never Again". As a Jew, I will NEVER vote for that OLD F@RT. He will no doubt say that it was not he who made the statement but nontheless allow his campaign to vomit excrement without any accountability. I agree that the media isn't doing their job but it's because they are hiding the hideousness of McFuddled.

Boy the [R] desperation continues. Sounds to me like a lot of whining from the McCain camp: "no,no, don't look at Barack; look at ME! Look at ME!"

This [R] ad campaign is really pathetic. It doesn't provide anything new or positive to sway new or indecided voters....its designed for the [R] few-believers, to keep them on-board the [R] attack machine. Those who liked Bush, now like McCain...because their policies are nearly identical......those failed policies are now the in-grown policies of the whole [R] party whose proud motto, like that of its deranged leader, is "stay the course". The whole [R] party is a failure.

Seriously, just how much more desperate can McOld get??? It is so sad, and yet I laugh....

Mccain doesn't talk about himself. Only talks about Obama.

I guess Mccain is bored with himself, like the rest of America has been.

The McCain camp with help from the MSM is like a little spoiled child vying for attention. Why don't you implement some "true" journalistic policies by calling McSame on all of his mistakes?

This ad is completely misleading. Obama was voting against a bill to fun the war because he knew it was the only way to try to force the President to get troops out of Iraq.

Also, Obama understands that continuing to bankrupt our country with this was is not responsible for the youth in the U.S.

He have borrowed every dime that we've spent in Iraq, and currently pay 9% of our annual budget in interest, a number which goes up every day as we borrrow more and more money from the chinese and other foriegn and special interests.

Hope the old guy can keep his facts straight at least for a while today.

Get real with your lead saying McCain message ready to hit Berlin Thursday..............They don't have a message just a smear campaign with no other purpose than covering up their lack of policy and get attention for themselves cause no one watches them or cares about them other than the party faithfuls and many of them are sleeping through it.

Mr. McCain get not so much Attention like B. Obama, thatswhy he is angry. If McCain would come to Berlin, Germany not much People would come to see him.
I travel tomorrow 5 Hours to Berlin to see Barack Obama.

lame.

Leader never proclaim he is a leader, it is the followers who proclaim that.
I don't see any one following McCain, except McCain following Obama.
24 hours McCain utters Obama's name. He has nothing to say on his own, Sad -Sad.-sad
McCain wishes so much to be with Obama, he even pick Berlin for his ads.
Pathetic-pitiful.

McCain supports military/veteran funding? Do a little research and it's not hard to find what his real record is:

McCain Opposes the 21st Century GI Bill Because It Is Too Generous.
Voted Against Increased Funding for Veterans’ Health Care.
McCain Voted Against Adding More Than $400 Million for Veterans’ Care.
Voted Against Establishing a $1 Billion Trust Fund for Military Health Facilities.
Opposed $500 Million for Counseling Services for Veterans with Mental Disorders.
Voted in Support of Disabled Veterans Only 25 Percent of the Time from 2004-2005.
Voted Against Providing Automatic Cost-of-Living Adjustments to Veterans.
Opposed Increasing Spending on TRICARE and Giving Greater Access to National Guard and Reservists.
Supported Outsourcing VA Jobs.
Supported Outsourcing at Walter Reed.
Voted Against $122.7 Billion for Department of Veterans Affairs.

and the list goes on....

and the folks in Berlin, Germany...Nein Mcsame!

No Way!! After watching Obama the last few days it is very clear who is the best man and most dedicated to peace in the middle east!! Obama's press conferences have been brilliant!!! His energy level is unbelivable and the world loves him. We need a strong, young, intellegent and highly educated leader to get us out of the mess the Bush administration has put us in. God Bless Obama!!!

McCain is Bush part 3. All the ad time in the world wont save him.

How about some facts tto back up the claims in the ad?

The "Say-Anything" Express.

Shame...

Let's see...a person giving a talk to millions in Berlin Germany, vs a campaign add in Berlin NH, Berlin PA, and Berlin WI. The only press this will give McCain is what a pathetic attempt this is to try to get attention focused on him. What kind of morons does this guy have working for him? Hand-picked morons.

we new JFK and u are not him doesn't matter if carolyn is in your crew and really why are u campaining in Germany when is the last time they voted in Chi town or for that matter and American Pres., u r a phantom 98% of the people that come to your rallies stop thinking and project their wishes onto u but that is not what u are who are u today ? I'm going to wait to the last minute to pull the lever most likely will go for Repuke Pres. Strong Dem. congress check and checkmate, game that vote fella.......

I smell fear in McbUSH'S cAMP!!!!!

McCain only has an attack Obama platform....he better watch out because he will find he has far more skeletons in his closet...59 lobbyist running his campaign (from Charlie Black to Nancy Pfotenhauer), USS Forrrestal 7/29/67, Phil Gramm's ENRON loophole (google speculators) , adultery (google Vikie Iseman), drugs (Cindy), questionable relationship with Pastor Parsely, Keating 5, receiving $100,000.00 from Lowell Paxson (google Paxson FCC) , took $1,069,854.00 from big oil....and the list goes on.
McCain said the media was HIS BASE, i guess there is so much truth in that other wise we would have heard more about McCain's questionable relations and poor judgment. Obama might be getting more media coverage, but McCain is getting kid glove treatment from the media...lets talk about fair coverage

I just saw the cities. Ooops. I retract my statements.

Yeah, right..

John wear is your FALG PIN..??

Why did you vote against the GI Bill..

Why do you have washingotn insiders on your campaign who have taken millions from American's just to find their housing foreclosed on..??

Why do you NOT have a strategy to END the WAR..?

Why are you a critic when you cannot get your own message across ..?

Why do Americans feel like we have to have the WAR shoved down our throats again, and again..??

Why can't get get out to go fight the REAL WAR pn TERROR..?

Why haven't you been to Montana to see our REAL rural problems and economic hardships..

Why did you vote agains the Farm Bill that helps the farmers here in Montana..??

and John why do your surragotes lie to the American people..?

IAM SURE THAT MCCAIN WONT HAVE ANY MEDIA. THE MEDIA CLOWN O.B. TAKES IT ALL. WHAT A BIG JOKE.

Oh my gosh, this is disgusting. I thought it was against policy to attack American officials/candidates aboard. Americans are voting, not Germans. McCain is looking more and more pitiful. What is wrong with his advisers? I'm starting to feel sorry for him.

Wow.

Aside from how funny it is that this is the best McCain can afford, McCain's voting record is much worse then Obama's when it comes to the military.

"VO: And Senator McCain?
VO: As a veteran and someone who has always put the public interest first, John McCain stood by our troops."

Note that they provide no actual examples of that. McCain voted against the updated GI Bill.

-OEF and OIF veteran

This may be the most innovative thing that the McCain campaign has done in this election season. I applaud the idea. Of course the message itself is pretty negative and deceptive. Go figure, he takes a good idea and then steps on it by airing an attack on Obama rather than touting his own policy. I guess you can;t teach an old dog and an old party new tricks!

The deperation of the mccain camp and the RNC is too funny to watch!

GO OBAMA!!!!

Do we even know for sure that Mccain realizes Berlin Germany is not in the US? I think he is putting these ads on thinking that Obama must be in one of these 3 places, but he is not sure which one. Let's face it, geography is not McCain''s strong suit.

Another silly ad from McStupid. Full of lies and misrepresentations....just like John McCain.

mcmoron has voted against improving the lifes of our troops over and over again. Is mccain confused again? He seems to want to blame Sen Obama for his own lapses in memory and judgment.

What about mcattack's handlers? are they just as senile and uninterested in the truth as mcliar seems to be or are they just sabotaging his presidential run because george w doesn't like him anyway even though he says he support him. With friends like w and mccain's staff, he doesn't need enemies.

Here's some advice mccain: take the log out of your own eye, before you try lying about Sen obama's record.

Pitiful campaign and useless Ads.

CNN keeps feeding the troll. How many articles will the media show saying " mCCain did this in an attempt to counter positive buzz from Obama tour"??? When you know why McCain camp is trying to make news, why do you keep getting played by them?

McCain is sure straving for some attention

Rather pathetic I must say

Obama 08

McCain = So sad!

Vell, Herr McCain. Vhat do zu think that zu kann offer zee German people zat zhey don't already have? Herien?

Ve have your dollars. Ve have your housing loans. Ve have your McDonalds. Aber, ve shall no longer have your back. First zee stupid hanging chads. Zhen zee stupid war. Now zee stupid republicans. Go back vhere you come from Herr. McCain. Ve don't need your Vorld Var 3 mentality.

Ok Obamabots, your turn to insult McCain....

Anyone want to take bets the McCain ads are criticizing Obama? Thus far that is the thrust of the McCain campaign: Obama.

lead where, ARIZONANS don´t even want him anymore

why doesn´t the ad mention the GI BILL????complete silence, and he favors the troops?
how many homeless vets on the streets of this great country, mc c just doesn´t want to help them....SHAMEFUL

but why is this ad about WAR WAR WAR instead of ECONOMY ECONOMY ECONOMY?????they do not know anything else, PATHETIC!!! Talk about the ECONOMY.......Stupid!!!

Our military have done marvlous job lowering the violence in Iraq. What we are missing is a leadership who understands the price we are paying by stay in Iraq, it is time we say no to the Bush/Mccain policy and vote for change this November.

Who cares what the McSame campaign does? He's nothing but a crabby old crybaby anyway. Any more whining about media coverage and the spoiled little brat ought to be made to go sit in the corner. I'm sick of his bellyaching, and I'm sick of how out of touch he is with the realities in the Middle East, Europe, AND here at home! The guy is not mentally fit to be President. Czechoslovakia? The main battleground for the war on terror is in Iraq and not Afghanistan? The surge occurred months AFTER the Sunni turned on alQaeda, but the surge caused that change in the Sunni attitude anyway? REALLY, McCain? What else can you make up? You're out to lunch, pal! You're not fit for the White House. Why don't you just retire and do us all a big favor?

Pathetic.

It's amazing what CNN thinks is "clever"?

other than crying about the media, attacking Obama and making these HUGE gaffes, what "message" does McCain or his camp have to offer? oh i got it noun, verb, surge...repeat.

He forgot Berlin, Czechoslovakia.

I think it's about time the McCain campaign called out Obama on his DOUBLE-SPEAK. He says one thing and does another.

My impression of Obama is that he can't be trusted to make a DECISION and stand by it...he's completely driven by POLITICS.

The more I see and hear from the arrogant/ "know-it-all" Obama, the more I like McCain!

I wonder which "lucky" aide got to tell McCain that the "wall" wasn't in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania OR Wisconsin. What a ridiculous campaign stunt. In terms of the content (or lack thereof), let's not mention the fact that McCain has voted against FOUR separate troop funding or veteran's care bills in the past several years. Three of which Obama voted for (for one he wasn't a Senator yet) and one of which was vetoed by the worst president ever.

This just looks very desperate and very weak on McCain's behalf.

Did you know the McCain advertising department has a MOLE!?
The two most recent ads, in the blur of the modern, cluttered media world actually help Obama. There was one showing a great photo of Obama with a blue background and American troops, then a long clip of endorsements by MSM.
Both of these plant a better picture of Obama in the viewers' minds!

I don't understand. Senator McCain has an opportunity to talk about the thing that matters most to the American people, but he continues to attack Senator Obama on Foreign Policy. Sir, Please begin to address the issues that we need to confront here at home.

It's The Economy, Senator McCain.

this is beyond retarded? Who runs his camp, 12 year olds?????

McCain is desperate and is a convenient liar. But, of course, he will wage a "civil" campaign. Well ... so much for that. McCain just has NOTHING going for him but ridiculous attacks on a great presidential candidate. Hopefully those Republican lies will be seen for what they are. Remember, "YOU CAN'T FOOL ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME ..."

McLame is spending more and more time attacking Obama and not explaining what he would actually do for the American people.

He is looking and acting more and more like an angry old man.
...........Very sad and pathetic........

Americans want a true inspirational leader... and that is OBAMA!

CNN, WHY DO I NEED TO GO TO HUFFINGTONPOST.COM TO GET THE NEWS! YOU GUYS ARE SLIPPING.

What a stupid, cheap gimmick.

What other juvenile nonsense can the Republican's come up with?Perhaps while Obama is making a speech at the Brandenburg Gate, McCain can be photographed eating a piece of Battenburg Cake?

More from McGrandstanding and McPandering.

Give it up gramps!

McCain is INSANE!

Correct title: McCain fake Berlin sideshow.

McCain needs to stop focusing so much on Obama to the point of making so many gaffes and seeming so disagreeable. Soon, no one will wish to see him in charge of the red button (especially with a confrontation brewing with Russia over our star wrs program).

John McCain never stepped up to the plate when the Generals on the ground asked Rumsfeld for better equipment and he replied "you go to war with what you have"(as a result thousands of troops killed), McCain said nothing, he stayed silent. Now that McCain is running for president he wants your support. Think about it and if you don't believe the truth go back and look at the facts when Rumself was in office.

I am tired of all this out-of-context nonsense. Obama voted no because someone tried to tack on ugliness to what were previously good bills and good intentions. McCain has done the same (Viagra/Birth Control). Stop trying to feed America half-truths, you're making yourself look pretty ugly and ignorant and uninformed, McCain.

When Bush 41 was asked his thoughts about Obama's planned events, the former President replied, "A LITTLE JEALOUS, IS ALL."

This is exactly what's going on with McCain. All of us can rightfully say – He is an idiot and so very wrong for this country as president.

It's time to turn the page and chart a new course in America…enough of the same old Washington…enough of the failed policies of the past…enough of McSame !

It’s time for REAL change in Washington, it’s time to elect Barack Obama for president !

In these days the ads go well below anything what can be called fairness and truth. What I have experienced during the last weeks is that Senator Obama looks more presidential and more like a gentleman. It`s getting dirty.

To figure out what kind of a man McCain is, all one has to do is compare the tone and content the comments he made about Obama in front of the NAACP to what he says in a room he fills with Legionnaires.
He turns from 'what a wonderful fellow' into 'he will sell out his country for votes'. Not very 'heroic' to pander to a black audience by saying what he really thinks.

McSame is quickly becoming a national joke even the MSM can't take him seroiusly anymore.HaHa.
Obama 2008

Mcain's Camp is really dumb to think this will work.
Mcain is trying to become the US Pres. not local dog catcher!
Dumb! Really Dumb? Yes Really Dumb!

I wonder why the IAVA, Vietnam Veterans of America and DAV gave Obama higher marks

McCain: and his grade
IAVA (Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans for America) – John McCain “D”
Vietnam Veterans Of America (McCain is one of course) – He voted against them 17 out of their last 26 scored votes
DAV (Disabled American Veterans) – John McCain has a 20% rating

Obama: and his grade
IAVA (Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans for America) – Barack Obama “B+”
Vietnam Veterans Of America – He voted for them all but 1 time.
DAV – Barack Obama has an 80% rating

McCain voted against the GI Bill while Obama voted for it.

A clever (and cheap) way to get the mainstream media interested in covering these three places with a total population less than 20,000.

But really who cares? The world will be tuning into Obama's speech in Germany tommorrow!

Interesting attack ad. However it sort of looks through a political prism. The reason Obama (and most other Dems) voted against the bill is: 1) the Dems wanted to include a timetable for withdrawal in any budget plans and 2) the funding was still insufficient for the troop needs. Votes from both McCain and Obama in the senate are never as simple as this (i.e. McCain opposes the troops b/c he voted against an increase in the G.I. bill... when he only opposed it b/c he preferred a law that tied the $ to time spent in the military)... and it's not "new politics" and a "clean campaign" to insinuate otherwise.

************************************************

HOW LOW CAN YOU GO?

WILL DO EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK. SHAMEFUL.

Personally, I think Gramps McCain should go to Hell, Michigan.

poor McCain.

He told Obama he needed to visit these places, and he did. Now that McCain sees how well Obama is being received, he is scared!! Be careful what you ask for Johnny!!!!!!!!

I'd love to hear a McCain ad illustrating why he should be president that doesn't include any references to Obama.

this is a joke or what?
they are really looking like desparate in the mccain campaign

OLD POLITICS!!!

Get with the times and stop the SMEARS!!

McWarmonger is putting his lies in ads now – he's a loser and is desparate. Shame Shame Shame Shame

Go Obama '08

CNN why is this garbage making news?

This ad sounds like a child in the playground whining since another kid stole ther toy!

This became an obsession: the old man would do anything to get attention from the media...how about actually running his own campaign?

This McCain tactic is about as dumb as it gets.

McCains goading Obama into a trip abroad has back fired on him
and he is left sputtering, trying to undo the respect and attention
Barack Obama is receiving.
His ads are laughable and highlight that he and the republicans
can resort to nothing but swift boating and dirty politics.
They certainly can not run on their accomplishments as there
have been none unless you call the diasters they have
created for our country as accomplishments. Of course,
they are so out of touch with reality they cannot see or
admit to all the harm they have done.

Clever. Too bad McCain is just going to spread more lies and negativity. Someone give him an ice cream cone and let him play in the sprinkler or something. He's getting really bitter.

I smell desperation coming from the McGaffe Camp

What is more interesting is that McCain is pummeling Obama while he is on foreign soil. This has always been considered and "off-limits" and distasteful political practice.

Does McCain care? Nope.

And yet, it was Obama, not McCain, who voted FOR the recent GI bill. McCain's excuse: "it's too generous".

How about Berlin, czechoslovakia

MC ALZHEIMERS IS GOING INSANE. IF I WERE HIM, I WOULD FOCUS ON MY POLICIES RATHER THAN FOCUSING ON OBAMA.

Does anyone really believe these attack ads? When is McCain going to air an ad about McCain?

Does CNN recognize its journalistic duty to analyze ads rather than re-air them free of cost? I find this quite shocking... esp when it comes to ads so full of lies and hypocrisy as to take your breath away

McCain is so desperated and frustrated that he does not know what to do. Start running an exciting campaign if you want people to listen to you Senator Mccain. Stop complaining because you are digging yourself to the grave.

He better pay them in Euros..thanks to Dumbya, after an 8 year slide the dollar's not doing so well...

EOM

Sen. Obama is no John Kennedy. I want to hear the speech to see if there's any substance in it and not just media sound bites.

A well modulated voice with a prepared speech is not a qualification for POTUS.

There it is again, a highly prominent, highly used, but ridiculously stupid (to the less gullible people, at least) political tactic: SELECTIVE MEMORY.

McCain's campaign is ignoring the fact that Obama wouldn't even have had us over there in the first place. There wouldn't BE a "time of war" in a country that we had no reason to fight. And his idea to hold back funding for the troops was an attempt (political, yes, but everyone on Capitol Hill does it!) to get conservative leaders to see how much suffering is going on here in the US.

Support the soldiers, forget the civilians. Good idea.

one word. WEIRD?. maybe two. WHY?

Oh please. We know what Obama is doing. The Republicans don't know. That's why they are so scared. They don't even know how to fight Obama. Please. McCain, please go to bed and get some rest. You will definitely need it REAL SOON....

What a crock!

The guy can't get traction in this country, what makes him think he will in Germany. They probably have a more informed and enlightened populace. This guy is surely grasping at straws.

Interesting... now McCain thinks we should speak to Americans... but not while he was in Columbia and Mexico discussing trade, right? So now that Obama is overseas... its a bad thing, right? Oh I forgot, its McPancake flipping on something else.

whoop-ti-doo !!

Wow! Too bad the Germans do not vote in the American GE. Is this the piece the New York Times rejected?

YAAAAARRRNNNNN

Desperate clowns!!!

WACKKKKKK!!! SO WACK!
Please stop trying...please?!

McCain keeps mentioning his "service." I believe the only Veteran he backs is himself.

MCCAIN: ‘I Received The Highest Award From Literally Every Veterans Organization In America"

The recognition McCain has received from veterans groups is not "high awards" but FAILING GRADES:

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America gave McCain a grade of D for his record of voting against veterans. (By contrast, Obama got a B+.)

Disabled Veterans of America noted McCain’s dismal 20 percent voting record on veterans’ issues. (Obama had an 80 percent.)

In a list of "Key Votes," Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) notes McCain "Voted Against Us" 15 times and "Voted For Us" only 8. (Obama voted for VVA 12 times, and against only once.)

Vietnam POW Activists Called McCain ‘Songbird’ and ‘Manchurian Candidate’ We aren’t talking about a bunch of republican paid and funded operatives, we’re talking about all those who had to suffer at the hands of the Cong while McCain received special treatment.

Sequentially, integrity is what I look for in someone running for President. Self-aggrandizement without end is a characteristic flaw that cannot be overlook in anyone running for that same position.

Some Vet's might have forgotten, I haven't.

Give me a break !!!!!!!! Give the whole world a break from this bumbling idiot !!!!!!!

they are so retarded

"VO: But when our military needed necessary resources, Barack Obama failed to stand up."

Umm, but Attack Mac voted against the GI Bill. According to most vet organization it's McCain who has the lesser record of supporting vets.

It seems that the McCain campaign has nothing to offer but negative spew. Criticize, attack, deride,... Where's anything of substance in this ad?

I think Mr McWar is starting to lose it. I sure don't want McCains fingers on the button.

It seems Grand Pa campaign is desperate and lame. Hungery for attention. You are the one who asked for this. What a judgement you had when you ask Obama to tour the world.

Lame...

sorry Republicans it is funny how desperate they are they know that know one is watching what they do so they try to throw gimmick at the new media so they can bite REPUBLICANS will lose this year becasue they are using fearmongering and the karl rove play book

How dare McShame ignore that jewel of Holmes County, Ohio – the city of Berlin ?
What a farce this senile old man is.
Someone please take him by the hand and lead him back to his rocking chair because one thing is painfully evident – he's off his rocker .

MCCAIN JUST CAN'T HANG WITH OBAMA.......GIVE IT UP DUDE.

OBAMA.......08

Old man yells at cloud!

Attack Mac is really working hard to get some attention. But it's all gaffes and negatives.

I've lost a lot of respect for this man after his distortions and accusations that to disagree with his Iraqi ideas is paramount to being a traitor.

John Magoo has no clue!!!!

Can you smell the desparation?!?!
