Anyone hear about this super special McCain Ad coming out tonight

"Sen. McCain is going to have an ad that's going to air in battleground states around the time that Sen. Obama is speaking tonight," Hazelbaker said. "He's going to be talking directly to his opponent. So, I'm going to leave it there. But it's going be very exciting. I think that a lot of people are going to focus on it."

one problem these McCain people don't realize is that he is easy to ignore

1. The one that accuses him of having black children?
Or the one highlighting his work with the Weather Underground while in second grade?

3. McCain is a wannabe
a phony and a poseur who can't even attract his own constituency.

Let him flail all he wants... he looks pathetic.

5. He;s acting like a real a$$hole
Now McCain is going to 'leak' his VP's name at 6 pm and announce it at 8 pm. To take attention off Obama's speech. He is a real putz and I even heard a Repug Thug say today that he thinks this is wrong.

6. It's sad and pathetic one candidate feels he must steal the thunder
from the other on the night that is the primary focus of the convention. McBush deserves to be completely and totally overshadowed during the 'puke convention. It seems Mother Nature might be taking care of things if that hurricane actually hits New Orleans. (Curious - right wing preachers pray for rain on Obama's speech, but it's sunny and beautiful and now there's a hurricane that's going to dump Katrina all over the Republicans during their convention. If they truly believe in God, this should be a clear signal from above the Almighty is rooting for Obama.)

7. Is she the airhead who shows up on MSNBC every now and then?
If so, why would anyone take anything that vapid twit has to say seriously?

8. Very clever of the Republicans
It seems like the Republicans are going to do to the Democrats what the Democrats are not doing to the Republicans: They're putting the Republicans on the defensive.

While a few of the speeches, particularly Kerry's showed signs of an aggressive strategy by the Dems, overall they have had more praise of McCain as a friend and hero than criticism.

While the convention has certainly been feel-good for Democrats, it's not little to frame McCain. Now, unless the Democrats have something up their sleeve, McCain will start framing Obama tonight, probably attacking his "inexperience" and his connection to "radicals."

Though I've loved the speeches, I'm rather disappointed by this convention.

9. That piece said that McCain may announce his vp during today's convention.
What an idiot!

If he does, don't be surprised to hear Biden say "I can't wait to debate -----" while he shows his pearly whites.

10. Big Woop. They treat it like it's Breaking News.
I don't recall the news media making a special announcement everytime Obama releases a new ad.

Oh, that's right: Obama PAYS to have his ads aired on TV; McSame relies on the MSM to run his on a loop under the guise of "news."

13. The media isn't bothering to cover the convention very much anyway
They think that this is simply an extended time to have the talking heads talk away.

14. Rebuttin Obama's speech BEFORE he gives it
McFool has an ad ready to go with him sitting facing the camera rebutting what O has said in his speech. To be shown around the time the speech is to be given. Interesting- he tapes it before he hears the speech??????:wtf:
