It's hard for me to fathom how far McCain has fallen in my estimation. At one time I thought he was honest and forthright. His major fault to my mind was that his views were too far rigidly 'right wing'. I take back just about every good thought I'd had about him.
"Update: Obama spokesperson Tommy Vietor just released a response to the McCain ad on Saturday evening:
J"ohn McCain is an honorable man who is running an increasingly dishonorable campaign. Senator McCain knows full well that Senator Obama strongly supports and honors our troops, which is what makes this attack so disingenuous. Senator Obama was honored to meet with our men and women in uniform in Iraq and Afghanistan this week and has visited wounded soldiers at Walter Reed numerous times. This politicization of our soldiers is exactly what Senator Obama sought to avoid, and it's not worthy of Senator McCain or the "civil" campaign he claimed he would run.
