Counting The White Women In McCain's Anti-Obama Ads



ABC's Jake Tapper calls shenanigans on John McCain's increasingly disgusting campaign. We, quite frankly, lost count of the number white women populating John McCain's eccentric ads after Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan graced the screen (Averted Gaze). It's beginning to look a lot like the 2006 Harold Ford-Corker race in Tennessee. And, of course, the black man lost in that one. From Political Punch:

"How many young white women professing adoration for Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, can you count in this anti-Obama web video that the campaign of Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz, was sending out yesterday?

"One...two...three...four...sure are a lot of young white women in this thing....

"Why do you think they put so many young white women professing their love for Obama in what is clearly an anti-Obama video? What would possibly be negative about young white women liking Sen. Obama?

"When asked, the McCain campaign says they took the video from local news packages, but of course that doesn't explain anything."


So now we know why Mark McKinnon wanted to sit this one out.
