ABC airs the Wright attack ad that McCain's campaign never released. Steve Schimdt is sitting in a bunker somewhere yelling “If only!”
Dole ad attacks opponent Kay Hagan as godless, and fabricates audio of opponent yelling “There Is No God”.
Barack Obama aired this half-hour video on almost every major network tonight.
Stephen Baldwin, the mailman from Cheers, and a handful of actors I’ve never heard of want Minnesotans to think twice about electing Al Franken to the senate. The concern seems to be that he is hurting their reputation. Huh?
Politics Buzz John McCain’s role in the Keating Five corruption scandal has finally entered the ‘08 election. Obama’s campaign has put together a web site and a documentary focusing on McCain’s role in the scandal, which was a part of the Savings and Loan Crisis of the ’80s and early ’90s in which Savings and Loan institutions lost billions of dollars after making risky investments and had to be bailed out by taxpayers — sounds eerily familiar, right?
Ralph Nader takes another swing at viral video success by appearing with “The Obama Girl” and Jesse Ventura (!) in some kind of fake sitcom. I’m starting to think Nader is just trying really hard to get back on Saturday Night Live.
A collection of McCain’s nastiest attack ads. Cast your vote for the dirtiest ad!
A homemade sign from Florida. The resident who made the sign is now guarding it with a club.
Politics Buzz Paris Hilton’s mom thinks it’s “a waste of time” that a John McCain ad includes images of her daughter as a way to slam Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama’s “celebrity status.” Do we foresee a new political roundtable show featuring Mrs. H. as political moderator? Sure, it would be fun to watch, but nothing compares to The McLaughlin Group.
McCain’s latest ad tries to expose the media’s left-leaning tendencies by compiling a video montage of journalists expressing their undying love for Obama. I think it’s safe to say the video fails miserably.
Obama’s first general election campaign ad. No actual flag-waving, but plenty of patriotism. The ad will be playing on TV in 18 states starting today.
