    Everyone should know that Obama is lying in that ad.

    1) Obama plans to raise the capital gains tax. That impacts half of households in the United States -- much more than the false claim that Obama makes about only those making above $250,000 getting hit with his tax hike. So that's a pure lie.

    2) Obama is against drilling offshore and sending a strong signal to the market that the US will develop its own resources. This would dramatically impact oil prices, and hence gas prices. It would also lead to less dependence on foreign oil. Instead, Obama favors sending more money abroad to foreign governments for their oil. So he lies again in the video.

    That string of one word quotes in the video is just pathetic. Then he quotes the credibility-challenged New York Times. Just a horrible ad. No one is talking about it. Everyone is talking about the masterful ad by McCain's camp... telling... is there a backlash against Obama's vanity forming? You betcha....

    Wish I knew what McCain stood for...all he talks about is Obama, then says "he can help America," No wonder Bush stomped him in the past.

    McCain has a long record in the Senate. Everyone knows what he stands for, except you, apparently. LOL

    See McCain has what's called experience. Obama doesn't. That's why McCain is qualified to be President and Obama is qualified to fill in for Oprah when she's sick.

    Obama stays on point with his message.

    Three different phrases have dominated his campaign, and it's working like a charm.

    McCain could learn a thing or two.

    Yes my child, thrash about like a fish out of water in this new political climate.

    Rage, rage against the dying of the Right.

    Your suffering will soon be over.

    McCain doesn't even know what McCain stands for. Republican members get their Republican newsletter mail that says vote John McCain.

    But why talk about someone you're gonna vote for when you can just sit there and attack the opposition, rather than figure out what the difference between him and Bush is. LOL.

    This, ladies and gentlemen, is the story of this campaign so far.

    Judging by his "long record in the Senate," he doesn't stand for hardly anything on Afghanistan, which is one of the things he criticizes Obama about the most.

    McCain has been in Washington 20+ years and now he claims he has all the answers in the last year.Where has he been for these 20+ years? :confused:

    His long record in the Senate is completely irrelevant given that he has backtracked on almost everything he has stood for in the past within the last year.

    That is a very good point.
