CNN

The political "ad" that the McCain campaign has run, suggesting a likeness between Barack Obama and Paris Hilton and Britney Spears is specious on several levels. With all due respect, one must note that Ms. Hilton and Ms. Spears have had very public brushes with the law. Barack Obama is a legislator, that is a lawyer, and a law-maker. Barack Obama has done service to his local, national, and global communities, not community service, again this is observed with all due respect.

Moreover, Barack Obama is a policy-maker, and an essential framer of the national dialogue. Ms. Hilton and Ms. Spears, at this time in their lives, are not. To be sure, these two women are to be commended and encouraged for the efforts and the notable progress that each has made in recent months.

The crux of the issue is that the roles and responsibilities of anyone who would be President of the United States of America are serious and sacrosanct, not to be trifled with, nor entered into lightly. It is nothing short of demagoguery to squander the public trust in the unseemly manner exhibited by the McCain campaign "ad.".

We, the American People, want, need, and deserve answers to questions regarding unemployment, education, housing, health care, national security, and the end to the War in Iraq. In the absence of answers, we want meaningful dialogue.

Never, never do want to have our concerns debased in the way that the McCain campaign has done with this irreverent "ad."

Obama has stated there will be no increase in taxes for annual earnings under $250,000.

is Obama popular...well lets see why. millions loosing their jobs and homes, people have to choose either gas or food or medicine, our schools are in shambles while the oil companies and their lobbyist who are working for McCain are making BILLIONS...then comes a man who is thinking about how to fix the Bush/Chaney/McCain debacle with REAL solutions...yeah i can see how that would make someone a celebrity. as we have seen in the last few months everyone is following Obamas leadership from Bush talking to Iran to the PM of Iraq urging Obamas time line. we have seen how 200,000 Germans wave American flags, how the King of Jordon cut his vacation short to greet Obama, we see how a man is in love with his strong intelligent wife...(his only wife till death do them part) how Obama is a great father while McCain's girl is running a muck in LA hot spots...more like Paris, Obama is hope McCain...well you already know THE SAME AND THE SHAME

McCain's celeb ad is just stupid.....but Obama is looking like an idiot lately too.

Obama is liked by many people and John McCain is not. He needs to get over it.

I would rather have the inexperience of Obama than McCain's Bush kissing policies he is now embracing. I thought the ad a waste of good money . Only made me donate to Obama since at least he seems a bit more mature in spite of McCains age. As far as the taxes , I am not in the 250K and above bracket . If I were Cheney , Bush , Romney . McCain etc etc , I might be worried my taxes would go up!

CNN is out of synch yet again:
1. Repeat unchallenged a candidate's outrageous claim
2. Cover to DEATH the other guy's reaction to the unfounded attack
3. Then and only then, after the fact, actuallly FACT-CHECK the bogus claim.

Hint: You should FACT-CHECK first, ACURATELY report on the claim, THEN beat the story to death.

mccain,, face the facts, you ruined any chance you had of winning,,, retire and go away,, your rude and nothing but lies,

Who cares – Obama stage tour through Europe was more dishonest than anything McCain can dream up.

John McCain is the most boring, pathetic presidential candidate I've ever seen. Who in the world would want a president that's not popular, well-known, and well-loved? Oh my bad, we alread have that in GWB. Anyhow, McCain is jealous and there is nothing that he can do to stop Obama's momentum except throw temper tantrums and resort to child's play as in the case of the ads...

Accuracy doesn't matter, folks. The message is important – Obama is a national or world celebrity, not much substance – no matter how you slice it.

Clinton/Clark '08

as much as "The One" add. Republicans are slime and there is a certain portion of the electorate that are willing to believe rhetoric slime for fact. Is it fact to them? Most likely. Is it fact in reality? You need to ask that question?

No it's not accurate. Anyone can see than McCain is jealous. He suggested the trip then pouted in the cheese aisle when the trip did not blow up in Obama's face. I don't see how showing your opponent before a large crowd waving, not burning, the American flag is a bad thing. Could McCain even get a modest crowd of 200 to listen to him drone on about nothing. Doubt it. McCain should spend his energy on getting a campaign platform of his own.

No. It's garbage, like most other items from the McCain can - er, camp.

Issues, my friend. We need issues!

I think if we were to compare McCain to anyone famous of course it would be the fictional Dorian Gray, except McCains portait in the attic is getting prettier by the day.

McCain's ads are hateful. They are not humorous. A man who devalues other decent human beings to try to get what he wants is showing he has a character fault. He makes claims about how Obama will lead that have not been based on what Obama has said or done. Also, as far as McCain giving himself total credit for the Iraq surge, he needs to be honest about the idea not being exclusively his.

Of course the claim was inaccurate. The rest of the ad is just stupid.
Let's review: this week, the McCain camp

1. Released the stupid Britney/Paris ad, which is just juvenile. Moronic. Childish.

2. Released an ad blaming Obama for gas prices, which is just incredibly silly. Stupid. Absurd.

3. Now, they are accusing Obama for "playing the race card". Right. The GOP has been playing the race card for 50 years now, ever since Nixon coined the "Southern strategy". Since then, we've seen Willy Horton, the contemptible Harold Ford commercials with a white woman saying "Call me, Harold"......and GOP hacks talking about Obama's middle name, and claiming he is a Muslim. And now, as the first black man to get the nomination of a major party, Obama states the obvious (that he doesn't look like a typical president) and now HE is accused of playing the race card?

Silly, silly, and very stupid. We're not falling for it. McCain and the GOP are going down this year......"big time", as Cheney would say.

The way that McCain is running his campaign, with no clear message or purpose, attacking his opponent personally as well as on the issues, and not offering a clear representation of himself shows his lack of ability to lead. His White House would look like his campaign, frivilous stupid advertisements that he thinks are fun with a mind that's all over the place trying to one-up Obama at every turn because he's jealous of the attention. Is this person fit to be president? Obama on the other hand has already shown his ability to lead. He is mounting a superb campaign, whether you agree with his positions or not, he surrounded himself with top people who know how to move an agenda forward, and he has stayed focused and on point. He would run the White House the same way. So, yes, McCain, he is ready to lead and he has been leading, in every sense of the word.

Cynthia is right. So many people were shocked at McCain's childish attacks that Obama benefitted with a surge in donations, particularly in first time donors. That's a big backfire on McCain because it allows Obama to prepare adult ads in response to the celebrity and messiah ads and give them national exposure.

Keep the negativity coming Rove, it is only hurting your candidate!

John McCain is coming across a whining old man now picking on young women to make a 'joke'. Since when does a supposedly dignified person use other people to make fun of – even if they are celebrities. Disgusting, mean old man tricks. He would be outraged if his wife Cindy were used to make a 'joke' and actually that would be normal Republican politics. She is fair game – but leave others not in your game out of your jokes. McCain has lost my confidence and vote. Grow up and start talking about solutions to our country's problems.

I believe that it was McBush that appeared in Wedding Crashers, not Obama. Drawing large crowds doesn't make you a celerity it means you are popular and people want to hear what you have to say. Just like holding hands with the Dali Lama does not make McBush or Linsay Graham a budhist(still bring back memories of Bush holding hands with King from Saudi Arabia)Who wears 520.00 dollar loafers,it's not Obama .
Connie from Indiana

haha. is his ad accurate? Is anythingMcCain says "accurate?" Um, no.

Britney has said she's a republican and Paris' parents are republican. So what McCain is saying is that young republicans are dumb like Britney and republican parents don't know how to raise their daughter? Not to mention McCain doesn't know how to keep a marriage.

YES, YES IT IS!!!!!

McCain '08 for Hillary '12

The False Messiah can go back to organizing racist neighborhoods – that's pretty much all he is EXPERIENCED at besides running for offices that he is unfit for!!!!!!!!

@ BlackMan4Mac–If you have nothing constructive to contribute to the conversation, you should keep quiet. You are pure proof that the quality of education that black boys are receiving is dismal. And if you had actually listened to this report and others you would know that McCain is being quite dishonest in his attack ads against Obama.

McCain isFlat out JEALOUS!
McCain is an EMPTY SUIT 2 Thumbs Up -shoulder high- Flip Flop Campaign!
The biggest Joker around! Keep hatin on Obama see where it gets you!
Focus on the ISSUES!!!
I want to know how th next president will lower the price of gas, fix the economy, end the war, etc etc
I need ads about Britney or Paris who CARES!!!!!!!!!!!! Are they goin to lower the price at the pumps!?!?!?
The way I see it only 3 kinds of people would vote for McCain:
1 The Wealthy – they are not affected by todays cost of living.
2 Idiots- they are not wealthy and still voting for a man who is givin us 4 more years of the past 8.
3. Racist- they know Obama is the BEST choice but wont vote for him because of his skin color so they would rather suffer another 4yrs- Pathetic and SAD in 2008!!

Yes! It is very accurate Ad! Obama is very irresponsible, flip-flopper, arrogant and wind headed bubble candidate. His latest dream is to have his face in Dollar bill. He already changed the "Presidential Seal". Is it not enough for the fools?

After running this ad over and over again, giving McCain free time to spew his absurdities without questioning him at all, why are you not running Obama's response to the ad? Obama's ads deserve just as much free air time as you and other news organizations keep giving McCain. Are you so scared to be called "liberal" or "Obama supporters" by the wretched minions of Bush/McCain that you've lost all sense of fairness?

MCAIN CRAZY CONFUSED OLD MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you people want him for president????????

Further proof McCain is a continuation of the Bush administration. McCain is making false accusations and lying just like Karl Rove and George Bush did in the last two elections. They fooled enough naive people to vote for them then so the real question is are people still dumb enough to fall for the same tricks and lies.

McCain is only trying to deflect attention away from himself and the lack of ideas or leadership and gaffes that are dominating his campaign. The media keeps it all alive when they should ignore it because all it is is trash talk and not the kind of thing you expect from someone that wants to be a leader.

Stupid ad, bad campaign move yet again. There were better ways to make the point if that is what they wanted.... instead of focusing on your opponents lack of good ideas, focus on your own.

Both the candidates are disappointments... wish we had more than a 2-party system to choose from.

mccain is not accurate anyways his a fraud.

Yes Obama is large and has been able to run a positive campaign.
Sometimes you have to defend yourself and call it as you see it!

The only difference is Obama will be one of few Presidential figures with the intelligence and ability to complete a sentence. He is way smarter than you give him credit. I put my money on him to get us back on track. Economy is hurting and he offers more of Clintons approach and we all know the 90's were good for all.

More of the same will only deepen our troubles! It doesn't take a rocket science to figure that out. The rich will get richer that's his oil buddies and of course his lovely wife Cindy.

No, that is why they have politicians and celebrities. They serve this country for totaly different reasons. I am sure if voters were flocking in numbers to see he him this would not even be a conversation.

McCain is only famous for crashing a few planes and I think we know he's no longer ready to lead.

it IS true. this guy has such a thin resume that no one should elect him as dogcatcher much less the U>S. he has shown poor judgement by attending a radical church and subjecting his young children to hate filled so called sermons. he has some seriously questionable friends, calls his own grandmother a typical white woman, and in his book waxes poetic about his drug use. but somehow this person is being promoted as a serious contender for the job known as Leader of the Free World. the DNC has shamelessly pushed him, the media has shamelessly promoted him and WHY? because he gives a good speech? he is comepletely UN-qualified for the job they are trying to give him and the american people would be the ones to suffer should they succeed.

I doubt he's the biggest celebrity in the world but from the sounds of it he will raise taxes on everything else so wouldn't doubt that electricity is on the list somewhere.

You bet! The Obamites squeal over this add so loudly because it really hits home. Now the crybaby is claiming racism! This empty suit is a joke.

I doubt he's the biggest celebrity in the world but from the sounds of it he will raise taxes on everything else so wouldn't be doubt that electricity is on the list somewhere.

YES !!! Let all the chicks hang together, HAHAHAHAHA!!!

how does this help the national dialouge about the poor state of our country and economy. i used to really respect McCain when he show an independent streak and bucked the GOP, he looked like a man of ideas and character but this is the last straw for me, there is no way I can vote for him after watching his increasingly negetive adds about Obama's youth and exeperience have totallyy tunred me off, there is no way i could vote for him,....4 MORE YEARS OF BUSH STYLE POLITICS WILL RUIN THIS COUNTRY......INDEPENDENT FOR BARACK

no stupid stupid stupid to compare a political figure to two pop culture celeberties. Naturally political candidates have star power when they run for an office esp the office of the POTUS. McCain is just jealous his base is not excited about him this way

Senator McCain can call him whatever he wants to and he is definitely ready. This same ad may very well backfire on Senator McCain because I heard that during the week that the commerical was ran that Senator Obama got in more donations that week than normal and a lot of McCain's Republicans disapproved of the ads that he put out.

Yes.

That is why it works.

No one but the Cult folowers for Obama can deny its truth.

The Media knows exactly how it exalted Obama to star status and forced him on all of us.

like i said before,, mccain may be a vet but hsa done only what millions of men have done also,, served our country,, this doesnt make mccain a good choice for president,, hes rude,, lies,,, makes neg comments,, jokes that arent called for,, whats his problem? one never knows with mccain,, he has stated hes enjoyin his "SICK" jokes,,, pooo=mccain,,, go obama!!!!!!!08,,,

McCains ad was right on the money.

Mr Obama is what money and a marketing and PR team has made.

He came from no where, with nothing, he knows nothing but his script verse which he is constantly repeating.

He stands for nothing, since he is always changing his position on things some times daily.

He has nothing he believes in, so how can anyone believe in him.

He is Mr Hollywood with a speech.

YES! Obama is all flash and no substance! He is famous for doing absolutely nothing!!!!

Hang it up, CNN! The ad was 100% on target. OBAMA IS NOT READY TO LEAD! PERIOD.

This is the real John McCain.
"Of course the U.S. government should pay compensation. It's the U.S. military's fault," said survivor Cho Kook-won, 78, who says he lost four family members among hundreds of refugees suffocated, burned and shot to death in a U.S. Air Force napalm attack on their cave shelter south of Seoul in 1951."

Do we want someone who would drop "NAPALM ON WOMEN AND CHILDREN"!

Is McCain's 'Celeb' ad accurate?

[B] Come on CNN, you're the journos [/b]

This just in from Paris Hilton's Mum
"It is a complete waste of the money John McCain's contributors have donated to his campaign. It is a complete waste of the country's time and attention at the very moment when millions of people are losing their homes and their jobs. And it is a completely frivolous way to choose the next President of the United States."

John McCain is the real joke. He has been following all of the failed policies of G. W. Bush like some kind of lap dog. Not only is he a flip flopper but its now apparent that he is no gentlemen. Then again Republicans have never stood for integrity.

McCain doesn't scare me in reference to Obama
I will be scared if McCain gets into the WH
I will be scared for my Sons
I will be scared for my Grandkids
I will be scared for my retirement fund
I will be scared for my finances

Because McCain offers the same politics and Bush, thats why I call him McBush!
That name scares the Heck out of me! Say it McBush! Wow

Ummm yes it is true. OBAMA WILL RAISE TAXES. REPEAT. OBAMA WILL RAISE TAXES. What don't you understand?

The question, "Is he ready to lead?" is legitimate, but it's deceitful to try to trivialize Obama by implying he has no more substance than Paris Hilton. Obama has put forward as many policy proposals as McCain has. Whether or not you agree with his policy prescriptions, it's just plain wrong to dismiss Obama as lacking substance.

McCain is making a habit of taking this campaign down the lowest road. He says he's willing to lose a campaign if it means winning a war. I wonder if he's willing to win a campaign if it means losing the respect of the people he hopes to lead.

I truly think that Mrs. Hilton, was correct. It does not make sense for any campaign to have the kind of ad that Senator McCain, did this week. What does two wealthy young ladies have to do with the problems facing the average American. It was not meant for a joke, it was to do what the Republicans have done before. Scare the American public to vote their way. It will not work this time. You have fooled the public twice and this time we will not be fooled.

McCain is a liar, if there is one thing I value in a candidate, it is honesty. I could not vote for a candidate who has lied countless times.

This isn't McCain's first out right lie and it won't be his last. McCain is running a filthy campaign based on lies and fear mongering. I hope the Republicans are not able to fool the country yet again.
Obama 08

He is the biggest celebrity in the world! and to answer your question he is ready to lead too. Thanks for pointing that out McSame. My question McSame is when are you going to address the issues that matter to America?

McAttack -Quote-I think it's got a lot of humor in it, we're having fun and enjoying it."

It is vapid and has strong racial overtones, just like the Republicans did to Harold Ford. By the way, why hasn't CNN called McCain on his claimof Obama pulling the race card? did you all conveniently forget his ad in June where he superimposed Obamas face over the one dollar bill!! McCain, Davis and Shcoenamnn – all graduted Magna Cum Laude from the Rove Scool of Dirty Politics. NO HONOR in that camp!

"I think we should trust George W. Bush in every decision he makes and just support that, you know, and be faithful in what happens."
-Britney Spears

Now does that sound more like Obama or McCain?

At last the news media is commenting on the devious use of young, vulnerable, blond women as a way to scare voters about the black candidate. The racist undertones are the point here. The question about is a "celebrity" ready to lead is merely the Trojan horse on which these Knights of the Camilia in their white sheets rode in on. Thankfully, people are seeing this for what it is. The Republicans know they can't "swiftboat" this time so they're "Harold Fording" Obama. It wont work. Oh, and Obama is "the one" this time. That they got right.

I don't recall any truth from McBush campaign. Is this a surprise??

Only those that practice "group think" will by into this ad. When people are becoming homeless by the thousands I expect more at this level. I donated to McCain and I wish I could get my money back, because he really is starting to sound like Bush/Rove and co. Something we cannot afford...

LIes, lies. McSame..keep feeding us more lies!

Yes. It is. Barack does not desrve to be our president. he has no record and no accomplishments.

To answer the title question....yes and no. Mccain is calling Obama the biggest celebrity in the world because he has a hard time facing the dismal reality that is the presidential election: Obama is far more popular than Mccain, and his latest trip around the world proved that. So, as the old saying goes, desparate times call for desparate measures. Mccain cannot seem to find anything legitimately wrong with Obama, so he starts putting ads out like this one or the Messiah one (which is disgraceful considering how "noble" Mccain vowed to be before the race started). So yes, Obama is becoming more presidential and more popular throughout the world, no that doesn't mean that he is unable to lead because of that.

How can you ask if this ad is accurate?
Its so stupid that there isn't really an "accurate" point to comment on.
If you mean is Obama popular? Yes, thank god. We have had 8 years of the world disliking Bush it is quite refreshing to see someone who is actually respected in the world.
McCain has really poor taste.

I don't know about the part on raising taxes on electricity because all Obama would need to do is shift his position again. But the part about Obama being likened to celebrity's is accurate. He's not going to be a good leader if he keeps on flip-flopping, that's for sure.

Accurate? No, it's just pathetically sad. It seriously just sounds like the green-eyed monster – ENVY. At the end of the commercial, it should add "MEOWWWW!"

If Mcain should somehow be elected, the entire World will ROAR in collective laughter and disgust. The same old politics in the same old way. The entire world wants a change – we want Barack!

Celebrity? It looks as if McCain is jealous. Obama draws huge crowds. He speaks well. He looks the part.

McCain is not the "biggest celebrity in the world". But is HE ready to lead?

Yes, in part but only for the rich and wealthiest in the country. Others he will cut taxes.

Yes, Barack Obama is a celebrity. So many people believe in
him, are proud of his status and so very proud of the man
hisself. How could he not get attention. And to create an admirable
relationship with foreign countries is somethng we have been
lacking for quite some time.
Is he ready to lead? ABSOLUTELY!
Mccaain and the republicians need to stop being so
ridiculous with their ads and bring back some integrity
to their campaigns.

McAttack- Think it 's Alot a Humor in it ......Quote****we're having fun and enjoying it

Obama used the celebrity/overexposure comparison himself earlier so he is being hypocritical to object now!

Remember – it takes oil to generate electricity, so however you look at it, Obama's plans will cost Americans big time!

Its a SHAME SHAME add. McCain is just losing again and its jealous of Barack.

raising your electric bill?...in 2009?
In a time when Americans are walking an economic tightrope shuffling their dollars in hopes of being able to cover the cost of buying food vs buying gas, vs dealing with potential foreclosures... these current worries are what matter right now and overshadow any potential problems down the road.

McCain gave us the ad "The One". In response, I dedicate to McCain the Metallica song "One".

I can't remember anything
can't tell if this is true or dream
deep down inside I feel to scream
this terrible silence stops me

now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
that there's not much left of me
nothing is real but pain now

hold my breath as I wish for death
oh please God, wake me

back in the womb it's much too real
in pumps life that I must feel
but can't look forward to reveal
look to the time when I'll live

fed through the tube that sticks in me
just like a wartime novelty
tied to machines that make me be
cut this life off from me

hold my breath as I wish for death
oh please God, wake me

now the world is gone I'm just one
oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death

darkness imprisoning me
all that I see
absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
trapped in myself
body my holding cell

landmine has taken my sight
taken my speech
taken my hearing
taken my arms
taken my legs
taken my soul
left me with life in hell

The American media has long hidden from the public the astonishing fact that as a long term US Senator, John McCain has only a rudimentary understanding of both domestic and national security issues. His petulant, spoiled child disposition makes him un- presidential. He is a reckless individual. A vote for him is a reckless, irresponsible vote. This concerted racist campaign he has now decided to run demonstrates he has no decency. In the last week, he has made it perfectly clear that his campaign is based on the rebirth of Jim Crow era politics. The incessant comments that Senator Obama is presumptuous, arrogant and/or cocky are all code words for he is an uppity Negro who can’t be trusted to know his place. Along with the constant red security alerts, which the Bush administration will start up within the next month, it wouldn’t be surprising for McCain-Bush to propose a national poll tax before the November election. America is struggling after 16 years of Clinton and Bush. McCain would be the final nail in America’s coffin.

Is it a test in connection with people`s knowledge of the facts? Many of the people living in rural America don`t even know about the personal facts of senator Obama. This ad is directly aimed at those citizens who are low educated and low informed, thus it will fulfil its purpose. Sad enough that such a lot of people in the US don`t even check up the facts and vote as they have voted for generations.

A waste of money indeed. I agree with Mrs. Hilton who happens to be a McCain supporter. As McCain says they are "having fun and the ad has a lot of humor in it". I also hope they also anticipate a rebound implication of their own ad. I hope RNC and McCain (especially if he becomes president) would not sacrifice the American people just to have fun. I also hope they would learn to respect the intelligence of the American people. AND, I also hope if ever he becomes president, he wouldn't use American people's money just to have fun and perhaps WIN??....hmm...I forgot on what issue did he mention that.

I respected John McCain very much, I wished him to be the president in 2000 instead of President Bush. Now John McCain's time is gone, he is out of touch with country. John's champaign gone too far with negative advertisement, John McCain is not the person as we knew in 2000.

I'm so upset. What happened to the issues? What happened to the concerns of the American people? Why does the news have to be continually filled with this meaningless drivel? I care about this great country. I care about the problems of war and recession. Why are these not the issues the press cares about and reports? Why do we have to concern ourselves with transparent attempts by political parties to damage their opponents? There's no accountability anymore. The media only cares about what will sell. I guess that's what upsets me most; that the American people care more about whether Obama is too thin than it cares about the breakdown of the American economy. Maybe the constant acceptance of greed has anesthetized the public. I don't know. All I know is that I started out last fall with hope for something new and now I am disgusted by the reality that there is nothing new to behold. My hope has been squandered by the polical process and the media machine.

John McCain obviously feels that Barack Obama is ready to lead this nation. He's scared that the American people think so too, that is why he is sinking so low in this campaign.

The truest ad this entire election.

If Hillary COULD have done it- without being crucified- she would have been the next president.

The DNC can not tie McCain's hands... and can not demand that HE adore Obama publicly ...the way they did with Hill.

Bless John McCain for telling it like it is.

The McCain ad has hit the mark exactly. Obama is lacking in substance just like Spears and Hilton. The perfect example of Obama's lack of real substance is his campaigning to Euro-trash.

It is accurate and my first smile of this campaign.

I hated the horrible way Hillary was treated JUST to exalt the great Obama.

Finally, I can smile. The emperor has no clothes... I knew it... no one dared speak it... he was... you know... hush... half black... so ...hush.

Hillary was the best... now McCain will have to do.

Trash women at you own peril just to bow down before the race card of coercion.

Pundits will look back on this week's attack ads and conclude that this was the week when McCain lost hope of winning by abandoning his honor.

cnn your great at the negatives that you post on senator obama, you are controlling when it come to comments that are positive on the senator, cnn late addition of wolf blitzer, obama is getting to much attention form the news station and the news reporter, is that senator obama fault. cnn ,and every news station knows why he getting so much attention, number one is he a black candidate, he the youngest, he's extraordinarily brilliant, he handsome. all that have seeked the presidency before him some of than were not have as smart as he is. if george w. bush can be a president, with no knowledge of what he was doing, he had to be led by the hand by his advisors that didn't care about him led him down a road of distrustfulness hasn't earned a legacy, what accomplishments does he have for a library. there are people that don't want change most of the average works want a change and i am one of them OBAMA WILL BE ELECTED PRESIDENT ITS TiME FOR A CHANGE ( OBAMA 08 )

Is it possible that McCain can become the president the same way that Bush did by saying nothing and using lies and nonsence to win the White House. Are the American people that stupid to fall for the same trick a third time but this time face a man that admits to think that war is a way to fix a problem and seems to be still in Viet Nam. Have we not learned from the past seven plus years how much the Republican party has destroyed a lot of the good that makes this country great? Obama goes to Germany and gets 200,000 people to listen to him speak, while Bush brings mobs of anti American protesters, I wonder why? Bush + McCain + Republicans = Larry, Moe and Curley in charge of this country.

not only accurate but working...read all the viciuous attacks by

Sen Obamas" supporters...If not true people would not care what

its said ....America think long and reflect on what is going on in the

2008 Presidental Election...Choose wisely...too much is at stake.

Independent voting for McCain.......!!!!

$$$down$$$housing down.....McCain has wisdom...dont think otherwise....So he shows to have humor as well..The sky isn't falling

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

Totally accurate.

That is why lifelong democrats will now vote for a republican over the celebrity American idol.

And...we are glad McCain had the guts to say what the media has been afraid to say: Obama is running on his appeal to children... and their parents and grandparents went along with the youngster's awe of the ROCK star.

Ask Caroline and Jimmy Carter.

Such a silly reason to endorse the least qualified candidate and trash the MOST qualified one.

Absolutely! The fact of the matter is there is a lot more in common with the celebrity hype over these three than not. All three are thronged for no apparent reason by media. All three are forgiven fairly quickly by the media and still covered.
All three have little substance and famous for no apparent reason, other than fascination.
The only thing they do not have in common is that Men dream about the two ladies at night, and dream about Obama during the daytime.
The only reason Obama is being covered and glorified, is some degree of redemption for white guilt for past perceived ills against black people generations ago. Also, the guy can gab like a lot of black preachers. The absolutely wrong reason to make this inexperieced talker President.

It would not work if WE ALL- including the MSM who is pretending to ask the obvious- did not agree.

Obama= rock star.

WE have been blasted, beat up, threatened, coerced, and inundated with that message for so long we will NEVER obey the command to accept the rock star as our president.

Obama is not ready to lead anything but a pep rally. Rah rah sis boom bah...we can do it, yes we can, vote for me, I am the one. Yes, yes, I am the one, yes, yes I am the one..we can do it yes we can, vote for me I am the one..

The notion that black americans are reduced to just entertainers that could never lead the country is horrible and inaccurate.

HOW not?
Obama himself created it with his carefully nuanced, choreographed, scripted and filmed campaign.

Obama presented himself as the COOL candidate- rock concerts, free tickets, basketball game raffles, Oprah, RAP videos, and RODE THAT WAVE OF POPULARITY on Oprah's and Caroline's coattails.

The media bought it first and gleefully created the myth of the Obama movement- to propel Obama forward. The Media then decided to sell the myth of Obama to the people... Obama was great... infallible... beyond criticsm. You obeyed Obama when he silenced your questions of him. Hillary... well she was the doormat to be stomped on.

Americans prefer substance to hype... so your strategy failed.

The MSM were quite blatant about their starry-eyed Obama awe and their disdain for the bread and butter qualifications that HILLARY showed us.

The Media manically wowed out over Obama and it caused free thinking adults to want to vomit the OBAMA out. We have spit him out.

Darn good ad–tells the truth. All flash and no substance.I'ts no wonder Obama will not debate McCain–he knows the polls will spiral even further downward.

Of course it's accurate. Obama's celebrity status has been created, promoted, and packaged by the media for over a year.

yes

if mccain were to stand beside obama during those debates, methinks looks do matter. mccain would look old, fragile and sickly while obama would look confident, smart, intelligent and good looking. the more mccain talks, the less certain he is on the issues. he is in no position to defend the status quo and what else could he do but to attack obama like there's no tomorrow! mccain is simply jealous because obama is likeable and mccain is not getting the attention he used to when he was running in 2000. AMERICANS WOULD BE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE WORLD SHOULD MCCAIN BE ELECTED PRESIDENT.

It is a back door attempt to rehash the same racist Ad the guy who work for McWar did in Tennessee to Harold Ford and when they got caught, they yell reverse racism. Same old Republican BS, no agenda, no solution devert the public attention from the facts.

McCain will gain from this- the ONLY person in America to call it like it is. Hid courage is amazing. To not fall for the Obama propaganda and self-proclaimed superiority and appeal.

Obama is running because he is a pretty black (half black) man and no one dares say anything about his shortcomings and his dirty politics because of fear of the race card.

Hillary HAD to play nice and let herself be gutted by the dirty tactics of the self-important Obama and his 24 hour spin machine and 24/7 free press adoration. McCain DON"T have to....

For months the media disrespected ALL women- any vulgar Gender hate was a okay- and with that the BEST candidate was eliminated.

Now McCain gains from the mistake of selecting and installing a celebrity pop star as the democratic nominee.

Our Deepest Fear

Race baiting. adds give suggestions. then we buy the product.

Black man made to be with two white women.

Shame on McCain

Obama called it right -Race baiting ads will backfire and cause more to turn to Obama

Obama will win bigger 08

If you ask any Asian-American on the street if Barrack has played the Race card. They will say "Yes"

So this ad too is the most accurate of the ads. He is like Pied Piper and all the fans are following him into the lake.

But yes all negative comments on Barrack Obama are not being posted on this website so at least you will read this!

John McCain is jealous

Obama is getting the attention that he is for several reasons...First he is the first african-american candidate to be nominated....He has charisma, intellect, thoughtfulness

On the other hand Mccain was a war hero who has bitterness and a volitile temper who I feel shoulnt be close to pushing any buttons.

Respect is earned and from what I have seen of McCain he doesnt get mine

Yep it is fairly accurate:

WITH "HIS EXPECTANCY" IS ALWAYS, "c'est moi, moi et moi.

Give me a break

He is too foreign, too risky, too different, and has a funny name. In his own words. (Obama is not the one)

Let's go to McCain. He is a patriotic, he loves our flag and our democracy. Elect him and he will protect our values.

The truth hurts...

Shame on the Media for not exposing the demogogue and for silencing HRC whenever she tried to speak this truth.

WE WILL WE WILL TEACH YOU
WE WILL WE WILL TEACH YOU

It is and that is why it works so well.

Millions have been thirsting for someone with the guts to speak the truth: The emperor has no clothes.

Hillary knew it but could not speak it- party loyalty and all that crap.

That made Americans EVEN hungrier for this truth.

Obama will lose and McCain will win. BOTH CANDIDATES SUCK. But the Great Obama screwed the BEST candidate out of the race. So now we will derail his celebrity and media campaign.

ANY ONE BUT OBAMA.

McSame take your ex-lax.

The McCain campaign has a pretty poor record of telling the truth in this campaign, and this ad is no different. Check out factcheck.org if you doubt me.

No, because it has nothing to do with this policies. Obama has been "leading" since leaving law school. If anyone thinks he is a celebrity, think about when that happened? He became popular during this primary and now this election. I think this is mostly an insult to Obama supporters.

Question is is McCain ready to lead? He has been in the Senate for 26 years and yet I am still unsure of what affect he has made in office. Not to mention the state he is from has him behind Obama in the polls. Seems like they know him well.....

I feel that when McCain speaks he"s talking at me not to me
When he's says "My friends" he's not reffering to me
When he says "Americans" He doesn't have me in mind.

He in my opinion has a very institutionilized and isolationist view very much like the current president and it's administration who as we all know only answer to a select few.

Anyone who would vote for McCain or choose not to vote has a vested interest in the current status quo. Which does not benefit me in any way shape or form which is why I am voting (not) for McCain

Just proof that we will have a pres. who will waste the tax payers money if elected. Every donor should request their donation be return, if this is the best he can produce.

Obama will lose because of the celebrity bandwagon he created and rode. Because of the interference of Celebrities and the Media in the democratic party.

Obama was pretty- empty and untested and unaccomplished- but pretty. So Obama was covered adoringly and accepted without any vetting. HRC got bashed and trashed. EVERYone told us HOW to vote- from Pelosi to Moore, from Caroline to Oprah... From Chris Mathews to Jimmy Carter.

THE TRUE democrats are too intelligent to fall for the propaganda- we don't care for Paris and we don't care for Obama.

WE CARE FOR truth, substance, achievements, accomplishments. We could give a rat's behind about the Media's drooling over the people THEY think are pretty.

Because of the hype the media bought and peddled and sold on Obama's behalf.

For the Media's blind eye to the trashing of women- and their own Hillary insults and debasement- while decrying racism.

I would like to have Paris Hilton or Britney Spears at the White House than an old man like John McCain. No country for an old man.

the real issue is john mccain is running to continue the current bush policies that have proven detrimental not only to americans, but has generated enormous negative vibes globally. Talk about the invasion of a country, talk about snubbing the UN and allies, talk about rule of law in the inJustice Department, talk about people losing their homes, talk about energy, talk about the economy....the point is that the whole world especially americans are tired of the neoconservative policies that americans and people around the world are willing to embrace anything other than john mcbush. So yes the ad may be accurate (except for the comparisons to the celeb slots) and more because of the aforementioned reasons...its over for the gop and they know it

The ad is great and sooooo true. obama is a joke.

I will vote for Senator Obama!

John McCain is taking his opinions and actions to be taken from other people. He even has trouble following a written document when he reads his speeches. Now, he has Bush's people behind him at least he has stablized. No way can this man even begin to be as brilliant, versed or prepared to lead as Senator Obama.!

My choice for a Vice presidential running mate with Barack Obama is
Senator Chuck Hagel! I trust him. He does not share some of the same views as Barack, which is what Barack wants, someone versed in the old Washing politics and the Republican party who will tell him the truth! Chuck Hagel understands what Obama is trying to do for the country and world! He is my choice. He will watch Obama's back, go forward with him in a bi-partisan way and balance out the ticket!
This is something I have thought about for a long time. The democrats need to get out of Obama making his own selection.
Tim Kaine is an Obama clone, an unknown. We only need one unknown, as the media tell us Obama is.

McCain is unbelievable! This is a global economy. He needs to know how to operate the internet, at the very least! It is not that he is too old, it is that he has not kept up with policies, vision for this country and the world and I am sick to death of his copying Obama's materials!

Sib, N.C.

Absolutely not. This is just another one of the republican attempts at turning "We the people into we the puppets. What does Paris Hilton or Britney Spears have to do with the Mortgage crisis of rising energy costs.

I think it's true.

McCain can call it whatever he wants – labels – BAH. McCain is desperate and will lose this fall. He is an elitist that wears $520 loafers every day. He was shot down – he didn't win the war in Viet Nam. He wants to go into Iran.

Obama didn't elevate himself to "celebrity" – that's McWarmonger's label. The majority of the US and other countries like Obama. That's why people like him. More people like Obama.

McWarmonger is jealous and will use any tactic to get attention.

WE all need to call Obama A KINGHe love himself so much. His offer for my car's tire so smart and it show he really deserve to be PRESIDENT. We all need to vote for Obama and of course white people or we all racist. What a man, he not flip-flop, he play by wind,by poll. This what we all need.

Does it even matter? The ad was so dumb, aimed, clearly, at uneducated Americans who think that success and education is not to be trusted. McCain is making the same blunders as Hillary Clinton's campaign: they would do well to focus on the issues, not on the competition. Oh, and for the record, I'm confident that Obama is ready to lead. Is McCain? All he is to me is a veteran at losing the White House bid. I wouldn't trust John McCain with my beat-up Toyota Tercel.

Right on target.

Americans buy into whatever hype the media feeds them.

The media creates infatuation over nothing and spins emptyness into something of import.

The media focuses on perceived beauty... not on substance.

Americans are in awe of Celebrities- EVEN those with no talent and who have never actually WORKED to achieve anything of importance in their lives.

Awe over an accomplished individual would be understandable... but awe for awe's sake because Oprah and the Media say so...

Finally someone tells it like it is.

I did not like McCain as a candidate but I will vote for him for having the couragage to expose the hype of hope and the audacity of hype.

Do you think McCain has a "man crush" on the "O" man? Seriously though, why is McCain talking more about Obama than the issues he wants the American people to back him on in this election?

Do you think McCain has a "man crush" on the "O" man? Seriously thought, why is McCain talking more about Obama than the issues he want the American people to back him on in this election?

There's a lot of innacuracies in "The One" ad too. The 'quote' from Obama at the fundraiser about being a symbol is note a quote at all, but a second-hand remembrance from somebody (and others have claimed that the missing intro shows him to be humble instead). So it's unreliable and likely the opposite of arrogant. And the exchange about 'do you have doubts?' 'Never' is completely taken out of context. So these are distortions from the McCain campaign to make it seem like Obama is unfit. But who's really unfit if they have to resort to these distortions? At least Obama has a message to convey, not just constant negative attacks.

Yes...It is true..Obama will raise taxes on every successfullu business.

His world tour was like a Rock Star. The 3 network news anchors followed like sheep.

McCain isFlat out JEALOUS!
McCain is an EMPTY SUIT 2 Thumbs Up -shoulder high- Flip Flop Campaign!
The biggest Joker around! Keep hatin on Obama see where it gets you!
Focus on the ISSUES!!!
I want to know how th next president will lower the price of gas, fix the economy, end the war, etc etc
I need ads about Britney or Paris who CARES!!!!!!!!!!!! Are they goin to lower the price at the pumps!?!?!?
The way I see it only 3 kinds of people would vote for McCain:
1 The Wealthy – they are not affected by todays cost of living.
2 Idiots- they are not wealthy and still voting for a man who is givin us 4 more years of the past 8.
3. Racist- they know Obama is the BEST choice but wont vote for him because of his skin color so they would rather suffer another 4yrs- Pathetic!!

The ad is a joke!! It's slimy and misleading... what we've come to expect from the Repuglican party. If the money used from raising taxes on electricity is used to develop new energy sources and used to pay down the national debt the Dubya and the Repuglicans have run up to a half trillion dollars, then we need to raise the taxes.

How else should be pay down the Dubya's national debt... level EXTRA taxes on the rich? Level a tax on Fortune 500 companies? Taxes were increased and the wealthy voluntarily helped finance previous wars our nation has been involved in...

This time Dubya has just borrowed the money and accepted NO responsibility to pay it off. Maybe the Democrats will find a responsible way to pay down Dubya's national debt, because LORD knows... the Republicans only know how to run up a national debt and not pay one down. Let's have McCain include THAT in his next TV ad.

this is absurd! the only people who can raise the electric bill is the electric company! how desperate is mccain?

Yes it is.

Much adoration based on no merits.

The point is: These 2 celebs have notoriety just for being portrayed as important by the media- SAME GOES FOR OBAMA.

The Least qualified, accomplished and meritorious of ALL the great Democratic candidates, ended up being hyped into a superhero.

That is not what I want for my president.

Here's what Paris Hilton's mom, Kathy Hilton, has to say about McCain's ad:

""It is a complete waste of the country's time and attention at the very moment when millions of people are losing their homes and their jobs," Kathy Hilton said in a short article posted on the liberal Huffington Post Web site. "And it is a completely frivolous way to choose the next president of the United States."

Kathy Hilton

Duh, as an ignorant whiney peon at the mercy of McBush to guide me. I am now confused. Is Obama Brittney spears or is he Moses?

Oh heck, yes, he's able to lead. He's able to lead us into the changes that we should have done years ago. How many millions of people voted for him in the primaries? How many people gave twenty or thirty dollars to his campaign? Its only the GOP that thinks we must be protected from everything they don't like. Quit with the negative campaigning and get back to the issues, McCain. Let the people decide in November. That's OUR job, remember?

Mc Cain is DISGRUNTLED and jealous of Obama's youth and charisma. He wishes he had the crowd appeal of Obama. He accuses Obama of being like Paris and Britney in order to belittle and mock him. However, at the same time Mc Cain is SOLICITING THE ENDORSEMENT OF A REGGATON LATINO STAR IN ORDER TO WIN LATINO VOTES. At the same time Mc Cain is also BLASPHEMING AGAINST THE TORAH , by using Moses as a tool to smear Obama. Mc Cain is using the SAME STYLE OF LOW POLITICS with OVERT RACIAL AND SEXUAL UNDERTONES that was used against Harold Ford. Mc Cain IS OLD DIRTY POLITICS. A few months ago Mc Cain's campaign had a black monkey doll that was used as a MOCK AGAINST OBAMA, and also buttons of whether the white house should be painted black. Mc Cain campaign is just trying to PLAY DEFENSE to what they have started a few months ago.

Once again the Republicans are using the tactics of smear and fear to denigrate an opponent that has offered a new direction for the country. I hope the American people aren't dumb enough to fall for this shtick for the third time. We need change, NOW. Not name-calling. Keep it on the high road you promised, McCain!

Yes! It's definitely accurate. MSM and DNC launch Obambi starting with Oprah like a rock star, a celebrity. We all know in due time, rock stars, celebrities fade into oblivion. Famous for being famous, that's what Obambi is all about. Full of PLATITUDES, ZERO IN SUBSTANCE=OBAMBI.

You can discount most of the dribble from the McCain camp as just more half truths and twisted Obama comments. The GOP spin is dizzing and the outright lies dazzling.

Indeed McCain's ad is accurate...and Obama has brought it on himself.
McCain was more than vindicated with Obama 's comment "history has been waiting for him and this is the moment" – some arrogant uneducated peson would make such a statement one would think and a comment that sickens most Americans.
Obama is chicken to meet McCain at Town Hall Meetings becuase he'd look like a child and he knows it (which is a plus for him one must say).
Hey, I"m not for McCain either – they both are career Politicians which I believe should exist left.
Jack CArlson
POrtland OR

Heck no!...McCain is way more like Britney...but just not as popular!

Britney Spears (CNN, 10/30/03):
CARLSON: A lot of entertainers have come out against the war in Iraq. Have you?
SPEARS: Honestly, I think we should just trust our president in every decision that he makes and we should just support that, you know, and be faithful in what happens.
CARLSON: Do you trust this president?
SPEARS: Yes, I do.

John McCain (The Mike Gallgher Show, March 2008)
"No one has supported President Bush on Iraq more than I have."

John McCain (MSNBC, 8/20/06):
GREGORY: Do you have confidence in the President and his national security team to lead the war at this stage?
MCCAIN: I do. I do. I have confidence in the President, and I believe that he is well aware of the severity of the situation.

Greate reporting here? Lets just make a question and call it a story. Can we report what the truth? Obama will repeal tax breaks for people making $200,000 and for the Oil indsustry. We have had growth over the last seven years and these tax breaks have served their purpose. To make the rich richer and give oil companies record profits. Guess what they have not made our economy better for the other 98% of us or lowered gas prices. McCain tax breaks = Bush tax breaks. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. It would help if CNN stopped acting like fox and give non stop covereage to tabloid issues while ignoring issues the American people face.

That is beside the point. McSame has NOTHING NEW to offer the American people and he's USING the notion of POW to play on peoples Patriotism.

If you don't vote for the POW then you are NOT a good person and DON'T love America. That's BS!!!

I have to turn off the TV everytime McSame is on the screen because McSame actually makes me physically ill to watch him.

It's great that Obama IS as popular as he is, because it appears that MOST EVERY ONE ON THE PLANET WANTS Obama and NOT McSame.

In the end, these types of 'Attack Ads', which by the way, McCain said he wouldn't do, have just shown the American Public that HE IS NO DIFFERENT THAT BUSH..........Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran.

WARMONGERING AND FEARMONGERING WON'T WORK ANYMORE.
We're not a stupid as they think we are/or we used to be.

We can no longer tollarate the OLD WHITE MEN in Washington.

"Is McCain's 'Celeb' ad accurate?"

No.

"Did McCain scrub his own website to remove any references to himself as a celebrity?"

Yes.

Like all other ad attacks by McCain this ad is untrue. McCain has shown the American people who he really is by distorting the facts about Obama. Americans for the last 8 years have lived through Bush politics filled with lies and distortions. This is the same thing McCain offers: MORE OF THE SAME OLD, VERY OLD POLITICS!

If I may answer you question CNN. My answer is Yes...the claim is definitely true. Mccain actually took the thought right out of my head. I have been thinking that Obama was just an inexperience Image seeker executing the paris hilton celerity strategy for a while now. I'm happy to see that Mccain said it like it is!

Yes – Obama is an arrogant rock star. He gave his speech in between two band concerts with free beer and food in Germany. Without the bands and free stuff I wonder how many people would have been there. Will he use the same technic at the football stadium in Denver.

no.the obama 'movement ' is not about obama.its about the people who have supported him.if he's a 'celeb',then,its with good reason.folks are tired of the same old bs.

All the republicans are doing this year, (and most other elections) is to lie around without a single idea of their own and wait until they can find something about Obama where they can go negative. McCain says he won't raise taxes but how are they going to fix the 1/2 TRILLION dollar deficit? It's impossible to cut other government spending by 1/2 trillion dollars but all they are interested in is trying to make a big deal of nothing. People who support that type of rhetoric should be explaining how they can fix the economy with deficits like this. If cutting taxes all the time helps stimulate the economy as they claim how come the economy is in such bad shape? They have been cutting taxes since Reagan and our economy keeps getting worse all of the time. What have they to show for these deficits? TEN TRILLION dollars in debt with over 200 BILLION dollars of interest paid out every year. IT”S THE DEFICITS STUPID…

Eight years ago McCain was a nice guy, someone I wanted to win the White House, now he has become a pig in politics. He is the reason we need someone like Obama, someone new. McCain has become more personal against Obama than any other Presidential candidate in American history. I now despise the pig. He does not deserve to be treated with the respect one should give a Presidential candidate or a war hero. His actions since he left the service leave a lot to be desired, starting with the Keating Five. I am also starting to despise those who support him. For the record, I have not voted for a Democratic President since I started voting, starting with Richard Nixon, but I will this time, and I am going to give him lots of money. It is time for change and McCain is demonstrating he is not the one to do it.

MCMORON'S TACTICS HAVE CLEARLY SHONE THE

LIGHT ON HIS LACK OF HONESTY, LACK OF CHARACTER,

AND LACK OF ANY KIND OF LEADERSHIP OR INTELLECT.

HE IS NOTHING BUT A GERIATRIC VERSION OF BUSH.

Oh please.....
The McCain campaign is desperate.

Yes, it's correct. Obama is a skilled orator who can hold a crowd spellbound. So what? So was Hitler.

No.

The ad is accurate in that it is demonizing a man who has accomplished many good things in his life by comparing him to 2 women in Hollywood who are known for their sexual exploits, poor judgments, and their drug use. McCain call this having "fun" but I wonder if he would be laughing if Obama did an ad depicting him as a drunk, chasing women with loose morals, adulterer and commiting treason against his country as a POW. NOT so funny I bet.

McCain's ads cracked me up. I'm glad he's finally getting much needed attention from the press. I'm looking forward to him being our next president.

McCain '08

All Of Mccains Ads Either Tell Lies, Pander For Votes, Or Show Him Flip Flopping! This Means Mccain Himself Is A Lying, Pandering Flip Flopper!

No, If you got a person that can bring together so many people on one accord them it seems to me you have the makings of a great leader. Thank you Mr. McCain for making me see the leader Mr. Obama truly is.

Yes We Can!

The ad says and implies everything we all thought and said in private.

Yes. He is a celebrity because of the biased media coverage especially CNN.

McCain's ad was indeed racist and down right low down. There is something cynical about it as well. It appeared to say that even though he is considered a celebrity, he is no Spears or Hilton. He is still BLACK. In addition, using two blonde, blue eyed white girs with a BLACK man just does not sit well with white america who still frown on interracial couples. Obama is the product of an interracial couple.

Have we not had 'ENOUGH DESTRUCTION' in America?

Just what will it take for The Republican Party to stop the non-sense.

America needs a 'POSITIVE DIRECTION'

* Jobs gone
* Environment destroyed
* Cost of Living has increased
* Etc.

CAN WE CHANGE OUR WAY OF THINKING...WE NEED SOLUTIONS, NOT MORE PROBLEMS!

Mccain Has Not Put Out One Accurate Ad To Date! All Of Mccains Ads Are Either Out Right Lies Or Misleading!

YOUR STATION SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOUR SELFS.MCCAIN AND RNC HAVE INJECTED RACE INTO RACE.MCCAIN FLYER:OBAMA IS THE CANDIDATE HAMAS WANT TO WIN.MEANING OBAMA IS A MUSLIM.TEXAS RNC BUTTON; IF OBAMA WIN THE WHITE HOUSE WILL IT STILL BE CALLED THE WHITE HOUSE.MCCAIN ACCUSES THE DNC WITH ATTACK ADS BECAUSE OBAMA IS A DEMOCRATIC.MCCAIN IS A REPUBLICAN.LOOK AT THE ADS OR FLYERS PUT OUT IN NC,OR AND TN BY THE RNC.PLUS MCCAIN DID PUT OBAMA FACE ON A DOLLAR BACK ON 7-27 IN A WEB AD.HOW COME NO METION OF THESE LITTLE DETAILS BY THE BEST POLITICAL TEAM ON TV?

Senator Obama has only celebrity to offer America. What has he done? What are his accomplishments? Americans will not be fooled by an adoring press. We will not support someone with so little experience. The press can keep pushing Senator Obama on us but the voters will not elect him. We are not electing an American Idol. We are electing a president, which is more than a popularity contest.

We will choose experience, judgment, and a genuine war hero over a zero every time!

Democrats for McCain!

NOE LET'S SEE !!!!

MCSHAME WRONG 100% OF THE TIME.

OBAMA RIGHT 100% OF THE TIME.

AAAAAAAAAND THE ANSWER IS, OBAMA IS ALREADY LEADING.

ACTUALLY OBAMA HAS BEEN LEADING.

THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION HAS ADAPTED A LOT OF

OBAMA STRATEGY IN THE MIDDLE EAST

& NONE OF THE MCSHAME. & MCSHAME WILL BE TALKING

OBAMA'S GAME BEFORE THE ELECTION IS OVER, GUARANTEED.

a lot of attention by whom? it's a stupid NO CONTENT ad, typical of the GOP to run NO CONTENT campaign ads since they have no real platform or plans for undoing the rotten 8 years of Bush.

No. Just another one of the mounting lies from McCain and his supporters.

Until people stop listening to the BS propaganda that they continue to spew, they won't quit. Change the channel and stop voting for them.

Of course it's not true. Just go read about what a lie it is on the non-partisan site "www.factcheck.org", along with the huge number of other lies McCain has told about Obama.

No the ad is terribly misleading and is ALL SPIN. This is typical of the GOP and McSame has clearly adopted this approach as his own. In the absence of solutions and a new direction McSame will offer us the same as Bush has for the past eight terrible years. Obama is the commonsense candidate and will be a leader not just for a new better America but for freedom and progress everywhere.

McBush is a liar,,,how can he compare Britney and Paris when Obama went to Hardvar....McSame is very stupid...and he made fun of religious what a moron.

Please....

Obama is the biggest celebrity in the world... at least in his own mind.

Who cares? This is funny when you think that McCain has been a clebrity since he was shot down. Even more funny is the fact that he enjoyed that status during the 2000 election. We have had three Presidents that were celebrities that were great presidents (Regan, JFK, Clinton). Who doesn't want a president that is liked??? This is a childish add whose only purpose is to attempt to shore up McCains fleeting Republican base. Nothing more.

It's accurate that McCain is willing to do anything to win this election. And yet he still will lose!

Well of course it is a lie. That is what the GOP does best. Liars and traitors. I say lets win and then deport the whole bunch of them to Iraq.
Bring our troops home.

Further proof McCain is a continuation of the Bush administration. McCain is making false accusations and lying just like Karl Rove and George Bush did in the last two elections. They fooled enough naive people to vote for them then so the real question is are people still dumb enough to fall for the same tricks and lies.

Come on CNN, sometimes I think your staff is just as immature as John McCain. Report some real news....Oh, I forgot you are part of McCain's camp!! LOL

this is so sad McCain would not be crying about this subject if he could draw a crowd of any size. he also went a broad and spoke to worls leaders right after he recieved the nomination of hie party but could not draw the attention that senator Obama drew... I dont understand why it is not a good think to be liked abroad... Why do we have to be hated by everyone it does not make us stronger
