In the McCain War Room: Four Spoof Ads for Obama

Thank god they're not using these ads. Pretentious ads like these (similar to some that are actually being run in SC and NC by the democratic party - the ones with the two old guys talking about Libby Dole) are annoying as hell. Just give me straight facts; no mud slinging and no smug "narrative" spots (like these). They remind me of those stupid Truth.com spots. I hate smoking as much as the next guy, but stop talking down to me like I'm an idiot. As an Obama supporter, I am glad that his marketing is MUCH less negative than McCain's has been, but frankly, I'm still very disappointed in both campaigns. They both said they would take the high road and just talk politics, but how quickly they relapsed into the same-old, same-old almost gave me whiplash. Defending yourself is one thing, but using negative ads to combat negative ads does nothing but drop you down to their level. Negative ads have been shown to work, but I don't need pompous ads like these to tell me that.
