John McCain put out this new ad yesterday, "Broken," in which he's portrayed as the "original maverick" and pledges to "battle Big Oil." (Someone might want to pass the message along to his donors.)
Barack Obama responded with this new ad yesterday, challenging the premise that McCain has been a "maverick" on energy and other issues:
'
And today McCain issued another ad repeating the celebrity allegation (this time minus Britney and Paris) and alleging that Obama isn't "ready to help your family." The ad touts McCain's plans for renewable energy and energy independence:

The one politician who has actually made a significant contribution to halting CO2 production and getting us off the oil merry-go-round...is George W. Bush.
Bush has championed hydrogen and nanotechnology investments from his first year in office.
8 years later...the payoff is here, in simplified electrolysis, day and night solar cells, autos that can run on H2 alone, and the Hydrogen Highway...built by a Republican.
The man who takes over the job, must be a 3rd term of Bush. He must continue this vital work. McCain can claim to be a maverick just by following in Bush's footsteps, because Bush has been the leader all along on the environment and warming and has left as one of his legacies the ability to create cheap clean energy, in a safer, more stable world.

As much fun as your rhetoric is, this administration will definitely NOT be hailed as anything short of an environmental nightmare.

We need to get to a venue where Obama can make McCain look bad.

I think of myself more like a "deprogrammer" trying to get you Moonies out of the Global Warming Cult and back into America.

Real debates? Will the mcbush faction agree to that? Now that would be great fun.

While that would be pretty cool, I'd much rather watch Obama publically make McCain his oratorial bitch the way Clinton did to Dole in '96.

Otherwise he could look like a bully. Pushing around an old timer. He looks more presidential that way, but it's not an act. He really is that way.
He doesn't want to win unfairly. The embodiment of change in the political realm.
That's when Hillary lost me, when she showed she would say anything to win. McCain is taking that kitchen sink approach too. Throwing everything including the kitchen sink, and even throwing Cindy to the bikers, yikes.
