Really stupid ad
Has anyone seen this McCain ad yet?
If for some reason you don't have the 30 seconds to click and watch it, it goes something like this:
Chants of "Obama!" Flashbulbs. Image of Britney Spears (!?), Paris Hilton (?), then Barack Obama. Voiceover: "He's the biggest celebrity in the world!" More flashbulbs. "But... is he ready to lead?" Something about offshore drilling. Then something less coherent (probably false) about raising taxes on electricity. Then a less coherent conclusion: "Higher taxes. More foreign oil." McCain in profile gazing wistfully/uncomfortably into the middle distance.
So: Britney + Gas + Taxes + Oil = McCain looking like he farted.
