Shouldn't that be "intoxicated, celebrity morons"? Zzzster is upset since his one girl (Hillary) lost the nomination and his other girl (Ann "Man Hands" Coulter) won' return his calls.
Hilton's retort, in my opinion, strengthened the message of McCain's ad, anyone can read from a teleprompter... It was a juvenile appearing ad, a little shock-and-awe wrapped in pink ...
What's Hillary say about all this? I recall when she was losing the primary and she was offering Obama the vice presidency because he is unelectable. Maybe he is narcisstic really, if it was a philosophy he was truly interested in he would take the VP position.....
US elections 2008 Obama adviser blames McCain ad for poll dip By Stephanie Kirchgaessner in Washington and Edward Luce in Elkhart, Indiana Published: August 6 2008 22:03 | Last updated: August 6 2008 22:03 A senior adviser to Barack Obama has blamed recent attack advertisements comparing the Democratic presidential hopeful to celebrities Britney Spears and Paris Hilton for a dip in Mr Obamaâs polls with voters. Tom Daschle, the former Democratic Senate majority leader, said in an interview with the Financial Times that the Mr Obamaâs Republican rival John McCain was seeing a âshort-term blipâ as a result of the advertising, including one that used the image of Charlton Heston as Moses to mock the supposedly messianic Mr Obama as being âThe Oneâ. âTo a certain extent the ads are having some effect,â Mr Daschle said. âBut you canât be thrown off your game plan by a momentary dip in polls.â Until this week polls showed Mr Obama with a slight lead over Mr McCain. Some daily tracking polls this week showed the race tightening, however, leading some Democrats to wonder why Mr Obama has not commanded a bigger lead in an election year in which Republicans are disadvantaged by the unpopularity of President George W. Bush. Mark McKinnon, a media strategist and former McCain adviser who worked for both of Mr Bushâs campaigns, said of the advertisements: âI think theyâve crystallised their message and I think theyâre hitting a nerve.â Political advertising is effective, he added, when it ties into an overall narrative. In this case, the message has been framed in a positive and negative way: that Mr McCain puts âcountry firstâ, while Mr Obama puts âObama firstâ. The theme was repeated in a McCain advertisement rel_eased on Wednesday, showing flashing cameras and crowds chanting âObamaâ as a voice asks, âIs the biggest celebrity in the world ready to help your family?â The Obama campaign has sought to convey the message that the Democrat represents âchangeâ. Mr Obama said on Monday his campaign was engaged in a âconstant internal debateâ on how to respond to attack advertising. â[McCain] brought in a team that is adept at this kind of politics,â he said. âThis kind of politics has been successful in the last two elections in terms of getting people elected. It has not been successful in governing or bringing the country together to tackle big problems.â At a fundraiser in Boston, the Illinois senator drew parallels between his primary defeat in New Hampshire and the state of the race. âEverybody was taken aback because we had won Iowa and there was this giddy sense that . . .  this thing is moving,â he said. âI recite all this history bec_ause we do have three more months of work in this _campaign.â Ms Hilton, the heiress, hit back at the McCain advertisement with a video that referred to him as the âwrinkly white haired guyâ.

AAA...your right....shrewd moves....and i cannot believe that OB does not have a double digit lead
Not nearly as slick as Bill Clinton. Not pathological like BC. Just a wannabe with not much there. Still dangerous to the free world though. The big O is starting to look like a 0. Obama = 0bama Interesting. Firefox spell checker indicates that Obama spelled with the letter O is misspelled where 0bama spelled with a zero is correct!!!!!
