    Wow, that’s a great add.

    Wow, J-Mac’s crew is bringing it big time. I’m impressed with the string of ads they’re put together so far.

    That has to be one of the well put-together add I have seen this season, and maybe ever. Extremely clear and very strong.

    I was really worried that John McCain would run a Bob Dole style campaign.

    I’m not worried anymore.

    Great ad. No mudslinging, just cold, hard, indisputable facts quoted by his fellow democrats (and by the “one” himself).

    Extremely effective. Sweet!

      Very classy. Nice touch.

    I love the ad too, but I’d like to see a 15 second version that focuses just on the final clip.

      I’m with you.. that is a damning statement from the man himself.

    get a clue, weenies… NOBODY EVER had “experience” as President before they became President.

    to say McCain has it and Obama doesn’t is really stupid. No one who’s been a Senator and has NOT been a President has ANY idea of what it’s really like.

    any more than a virgin can promise you she’ll be a good mother.

    most of it is on-the-job training, and it’s not one’s war record or voting record that could be a good predictor of performance.

    if it were, we wouldn’t need to vote.

      Weenies?

      I just clicked to your website, which claims “analysis, synthesis, vision, invention” and then asks “What is the purpose of my website? PAYBACK”

      Click on payback, which is a link and you get an error.

      Go figure.

      Who’s the weenie?

      I’M TYPING THIS REAL SLOW SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND IT.

      THE “EXPERIENCE” BEING REFERRED TO IS …

      never mind…not worth the trouble.

      got up on the wrong side of the bed again, eh Alan?

      Just as there are activities analogous to “mothering” in which the virgin can participate to provide experience to prepare her to be a mother of her own child, so there are activities analogous to “presidenting” in which the candidate can participate to provide experience to prepare to become president.
