McCain camp compares Obama to Spears, Hilton . wait like wtf?! is this man tryna say?! John McCain 's presidential campaign released a withering television ad today comparing Barack Obama to Britney Spears and Miss Hilton, suggesting that Obama is little more than a vapid but widely recognized media!!
but yall know Obama wasn't going to take that so his camp responded back with their own commercial, dismissing McCain's comparisons as "baloney" and "baseless."
McCain's ad, known as "Celeb" is set to air in 11 battleground states, with images of Obama on his trip to Europe last week mixed with videos of the two pop divas Spears and Hilton .
"He's the biggest celebrity in the world, but is he ready to lead?" the voiceover asks, noting the Illinois senator's opposition to offshore oil drilling and suggesting he would raise taxes if elected.
It was the latest effort by the GOP hopeful to cast Obama as a lightweight with little experience in leadership or governing. It also was risky for McCain's campaign to both acknowledge Obama's worldwide fame and depict it as a weakness rather than a strength.
Campaigning in Missouri, Obama said the ad was the latest example of McCain's negativity — a theme his campaign has tried to stress lately.
"He doesn't seem to have anything positive to say about me, does he?" Obama said. "You need to ask John McCain what he's for, not just what he's against."
Obama also said the link to Hilton shows Republicans are leaving no stone unturned in their attempts to tarnish him.
"I've never even met the woman," he said.
i guess this is the best thing that he had?! knowing damn well that half the teens in America [ well all girls in America i don't know about boys ] LOVES Britney Spears and Paris Hilton . that's just going to up Obama now he has The Hills Creed* .
