Obama: "Too risky for America"

McCain launches a 1:40 minute tv ad tying Obama to Richard Ayres. They ran a "radical" education foundation which "had no discernible impact on education" (subliminal hint: maybe they were really plotting terrorism...). "They wrote the foundation's bylaws...together." (Ooooh, terrorists writing bylaws...) "It's not about their friendship, it's about Obama's candor and judgment."

Well how about some candor from McCain: why doesn't he say straight out what he's accusing Obama of, instead of dropping subliminal hints. He wants people to think Obama is tied or sympathetic to present-day Islamic terrorists. He wants people to think Obama's not patriotic to America, but really some kind of traitor with ulterior foreign motives. So why doesn't he say it? Because it's a disgusting and factually bullshit route to take, and McCain knows it. So he hides behind the subliminal crap. He still has to "approve this message," though. When this is over, no one will care about the political consultants who made the ad: it'll be John McCain's honor that will have been permanently destroyed.
