Perhaps you recall the big to-do over McCain’s ad proclaiming Obama to be a celeb in the same vein as Britney and Paris, followed by Paris striking back with an add of her own?
Well, she’s back continuing her run for “fake President”, seeking the advise of one of the nation’s “greatest fake Presidents” Martin Sheen from The West Wing.
What’s kind’ve sad about this whole thing is that the few actual talking points she mentions are well thought out and make sense. It’s the very things that many experts advise.
Yet somehow our actual Real Presidential Candidates find ways to either stand against these points, or be completely unable to sound them out in easy to understand sentences. Go figure.
Well hey, that’s cool America, you want McCain, you’ve got him. Here’s what McCain’s latest campaign ad has to say-
hmm… It seems McCain likes talking about Obama as much as “the media” does. Oh, and he also infuriated one of his campaign contributors by including their daughter in that last video. You might’ve heard of her, her last name is Hilton? Anyway, the daughter in question has her own campaign ad in response to the attention.
Something else I wanted to add. Since when would it be a bad thing for our President to be a bigger, more recognizable figure than our pop-stars? I think that having such a high profile would actually be a very good thing, meaning people were at least paying a little more attention to politics than they are to the gossip rags about which superstar celeb got what body part altered when. The president should be a celebrity, or at least get the same amount of news coverage.
And if people want to hear more about McCain, tell McCain to talk more about McCain, and less about “he who we’ve heard enough about”. That’d be a good start.
