Rep Power: 28   |  Campaign Ads So, i'm sure everyone is aware that McCain released an ad essentially comparing Obama to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. Funny thing is that the Hilton family contributed to his camaign, and Mrs. Hilton wasn't too happy... Here is the ad
Well, Paris has released her own ad http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/64ad536a6d *edit* I kept the title of the thread generic so other ads etc can be discussed as well.

Anyway, to keep things on topic. I am curious. What did the American finalgearheads think of the McCain 'celebrity' ad? Clever ad? Cynical ploy?

Rep Power: 28 | I think they could have called him a "celebrity" and just refer to the fact that he's so popular for really no reason at all. Throwing in Paris and Britney wasn't really necessary to prove their point.

Car: Audi S6, Armada, F430, BMW M3 Rep Power: 33 | Since when is it a negative thing to have name recognition? In my opinion, based on my interactions with his advisers, campaign staffers and others, as well as studying his record from the state and national senates, I believe that he is more than ready to lead and I think he'd be a damn sight better than McSame.
