McCain's campaign has lost its mind

[mudesi]

Just watch it. I know this is also in the video forum but not enough people have seen this.

I'm starting to feel sorry for the old man.

1. Completely insane.

I've been wondering if the religious references are a dog whistle to the apocalypse people to insinuate he's the anti-Christ....? Or is that *too* paranoid....?

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

8. Not too paranoid at all.

In fact, I think that's EXACTLY what they're trying to do.

[TomInTib]

2. Goodness. But I will admit I find it a bit disturbing when Obama goes into...

Evangelist Mode.

[Patchuli]

3. I was so disturbed by the imagery in that film

around the 20 second mark that I sent it to my pastor and told him that religious leaders need to put a stop to the use of our faith in slick tv commercials by politicians with no morals or ethics! Literally, that stupid old man is trying to tell people that voting for Obama is like voting for the devil! That's just wrong and McCain should be censored. Can you hear the outcry if Obama had done something like that?! It's not OK to use faith or religion in politics.

4. McCain in the membrane

Plenty insane
Got no brain!

[knitter4democracy]

5. Not insane. They're just talking to the end-times Christians.

It's chock-full of Christian code.

[jwirr]

7. And truthfully that group will vote pug anyhow. The good thing is that

many of their former followers are on to them and their religious lies.

[Botany]

6. Look @ this one

Trying to appeal to the latin vote w/ a dance beat

See Obama doesn't care about Latinos .....

The ad is racist and stupid.

McCaain when asked about these ads said, "We were just having some fun."

[sandnsea]

9. That's just pathetic

It isn't going to appeal to anybody.

[rurallib]

10. Time to recycle that refrain about Goldwater

"In your guts you know he's nuts"

[vitamin_D]

11. Why feel sorry for that sorry old man

McPain is a royal pain. He and his cam-pain people can't do anything right.

[spanone]

12. no they haven't. it's calculated swift boating by the karl rove protoge...see this thread

13. you're starting to feel sorry for him? don't feel too sorry. n/t

[TexasObserver]

14. Major media get only one of the two themes of this commercial.

There is ridicule as one theme. They get that.

But this is also intended to sell the notion of "Anti Christ" to all those fundies out there who are passing around the emails that accuse Obama of being the Anti Christ.

The McCain campaign is trying to dirty up Obama, to ridicule him, and to inflame the fundies with more fear.

[DS1]

19. That's the thing though. These people are so F'd in the head

first they WANT the Rapture, now they're afraid of the crucial part of the Rapture. They should all vote for him, then they'll be Raptured out of here before he takes office. How can they lose?


Stupid fundie fuckers.

[Smith_3]

15. That is so fucking moronic. Besides I think Obama looks quite good in that ad.

Its like they are campaigning for him.

[treestar]

16. McPain is the Anti-Christ

Can't those fundies see that????!!!! :rofl:

[sentelle]

17. i would not hesitate to remind

All of you that this is not a time for complacency.

Is it possible this is being done to lower our expectations? So that by the time this is dealt with, and it has eroded Obamas base, then they come in, and do real ads, that turn it into a horserace?

[DS1]

18. So, is he a Muslim or a Jew?

I wish they'd make up their minds.
