The McCain folks have a new ad out today filled with clips of all the times Obama said, "I agree with John" and "My friend John is right." Exactly how do they think that helps their guy? What I think most swing voters will take away from that is that Obama is gracious and that on some points, the two men are in agreement. Shouldn't McCain's selling points have something to do with where they think Obama doesn't "get it?"
Seriously. Not that I mind one bit when McCain has an ineffective ad up…but I'm generally baffled as to what they're thinking. McCain is starting to remind me of that nutty dictator in the Woody Allen film Bananas who starts announcing that all underwear must be worn on the outside and all children under the age of sixteen are now sixteen…
