Not Presidential?

By on 10.8.08 @ 2:06PM

I've watched this new McCain commercial twice now, and I want all 60 seconds back. In fact, I'm billing the campaign for this post now, because I don't actually want to have to write it:


Really. So the best they could do on an expensive ad is talk about how Obama's not presidential for disputing whether he was too liberal? The fact that he's never reached across the aisle wasn't something they'd look into? Or an ad about how the Democrats are responsible for this economic mess? McCain may want to suspend his campaign and attend to his message crisis.
