The real point of these ads.
I think at this point even the average 7th grade youtube watcher knows you get a lot more mileage out of an ad that's talked about ad infinitum than the ad itself.
Yes, the GOP knows exactly what it's doing, it knows exactly how to use a surrogate while McCain stands back and pretends he's above this kind of thing, and there will be much, much more of this and other subterranean campaigning over the next months.
Obama can say it's lousy, McCain can pretend to agree it's lousy, and meanwhile the viewing audience gets brainwashed with the negative message over and over and over again. (Oh, and just great that Wright is appearing on Bill Moyers tomorrow night, because everybody sure needs yet more linkage between Wright the Bad Man and Obama.)
Elsewhere on this site is a headline referring to the GOP imploding. Are you kidding? They are lying in wait like a lion for a newborn lamb.
