McCain wounded soldier commercial

Question

I read earlier today that McCain actually had two commercials at the ready regarding Obama's missed visit with the wounded soldiers. Commercial 1 was to be used if he didn't see the soldiers in the hosptial while commercial 2 was to be used if he did see the soliders. Com 1 was the one that was used about the cameras going in while com 2 was going to talk about Obama politicizing the wounded soldiers. He was going to get slung with mud regardless of what he did with the soldiers. I used to like McCain but he really seems to be a little too determined to sling mud. http://politicalwire.com/archives/2008/07/31/mccains_desperate_ad_strategy.html

Answer 1

Well, when you have nothing else to fail back on, the only way you gain political traction is to sling mud and pray some sticks.

Answer 2

How can Obamanation supporters say this about McCain when he was a wounded sailor/airman! He was bayoneted by the VC when he was captured after his aircraft was shot down over North Vietnam! You have to give the man some credit for resisting and just surviving what he experienced. Obamanation wouldn't be able to survive the attack never mind the 5 years in captivity!

Answer 3

The saddest thing about this election is one of these losers is going to win.

Answer 4

he is taking the high road.

Answer 5

Its political season Jason....Snippets are always made by pols to react to an opponents position, regardless of the stance on the issue.

Its political spin. Get used to it

Answer 6

It isn't about sling mud, it is about FACTS. McCain can't help to look strong and corageous, because he is.  Obama, in the other hand, looks wimpy, chat chat chat chat wimpy at the end, because it is just that: Chat. No experience, no image, no courage. Just a big mouth moving.

Obama is a terrorist's dream. They know he is wimpy, and they can't wait to see him get elected.  If this happens, it'll be a disaster.
