Continuing coverage of attack ads: This time, Obama rips into McCain

One after another, the Democrats and Republicans are determined to issue all and only attack ads. The McCain ads have been devastating, mocking Obama as "the one" and making all kinds of religious allegories. Obama's ads have constantly pressed the similarities between McCain and George W.

LOL, I find this ad hilarious. I doubt if the effect will compare to McCain's, but a good chuckle. That hug at the end...... I'm still laughing. I don't think it will matter ow many attack ads Obama puts out..he will not win.
