Whether or not you agree that "inappropropriate touching" should be taught in schools, you have to admit that the ad is missleading. You assume Obama want to pass out condoms to 5 year olds. The ads are getting dirty. The rest of the election season should be interesting!

And its not just the ads... I stated before that McCain scares me. I use to really like McCain but I feel he has realized that he needs to change in order to get POTUS. He has switched on issues, which is not uncommon, but the switches have rather bad timing that suggest they are to boost poll number. He has voted against his own legislation. He picked a gimmick for VP... someone who could be a great Repub. nom. in the future, but far too early for her. There are some great picks, far more experience, far more electable and far more sustainable. He is playing the election, which you can says is politics, and sure, you got to get into office in order to do what you want as POTUS, but I just feel that he has passed the Repub. primaries, and he can go back to his maverick TRUE self now, because he is generally a well liked guy who has great ideas, etc. I need to see that McCain, and maybe this die hard liberal will vote for him. Well, actually, its too late now, I care FARRR to much about social issues to have Palin CLOSE to the oval office.
