McCain keeps up effort to link Obama, antichrist

John McCain's campaign seems to be sticking to what it knows, when it comes to attacking Barack Obama.

A few days before Democrats begin their four-day convention in Denver, the Republican nominee rolled out another Web ad caricaturing Obama as a messianic figure who despite being compared to Moses leading the Jews out of Egypt is nonetheless unable to lead Americans out of their current mess. Call it "The One" version 2.0.

Like the last version, "The One - Road to Denver," edits together footage of Obama speeches, swooning supporters and clips from The Ten Commandments.

The video doesn't seem to be doing so well, though, most likely because mention of it is overshadowed by news that McCain's family owns a whole cul-de-sac worth of houses in four states, worth nearly $14 million, and that the 71-year-old Republican nominee couldn't even remember how many homes he had.

Just 200 people had viewed "The One" on YouTube in the first hour or so it was online, compared to more than 75,000 viewers of an Obama ad attacking McCain over his forgetfulness about his houses.

1. McCain't obviously stoops to new low levels!
And besides, The Antichrist is not a person-it's a thing, like maybe, GREED-Insatiable, Horrible Corporate Greed, and it has been among us for quite some time.

"This is ONE house we can't afford to let John McCain move in to."
