Recent remarks on the latest Blockbuster SFX ad put out by McCain to try and slur Obama:

"his ad was pretty lame. Who are their writers? Every attack ad McCain airs is more and more laughable and immature. The man has no substance- just another empty suit. I hope McCain's backers enjoy watching 2008-12 from the sidelines!

Disgraceful. Unfunny. Trying too hard.

Stop wasting our time, McCain. The voters are not stupid. They don't care about your youtube clips, or the Marsha Blackburn Sex Tape, or any of this sideshow garbage. We need a direction. The only candidate worth voting for--Nader--doesn't stand a chance. How we ended up with these two political lightweight, I don't know.

McCain would rather win the slimy way than lose the honest way.

His overall message is not how or why he is good or great for America, but only negative things to say about his opponent.

Is this what 50 plus years of public service have taught you?

ridicule the guy who can.

...Razorblade Nicolle? Very funny, or very desparate?

So, if Obama is 'the One,' then that makes McCain Satan?

I agree with the ad. How dare Obama be inspiring. Who does he think he is? I prefer my political leaders to keep me cynical and dispirited.

Also, I don't like it when foreigners are waving American flags and cheering American leaders. I'm used to the world hating us. It just feels right.

McSameÕs a jealous old coot who failed at being a fighter pilot and has miserably flip-flopped ever since heÕs been in the Senate! Anybody that votes for McSame is an IDIOT!"
