Do you think McCain's comparison of Obama to celebrities is accurate?

  • Yes, he's gotten just as much attention as Britney and Paris - didn't you see his Rolling Stone cover?
    35%

  • Mccain should be a shamed of himself for promoting that garbage. It seems that the mccain campaign is eager for attention and don't care how it's receive this speaks alot about his character. This situation makes him look very immature and he want us to vote for him.VOTE OBAMA VOTE OBAMA. Mccain is just an idiot for giving OBAMA more attention. The attention that Mccain so desperatley want!!

  • McCain is simply making a point as politicians do. The comparison is accurate however, they are all peole who like the spotlight but have very little substance.

  • He's Jealous. Obama is getting more recognize than McPain. I meant McCain. Obama Mia is every where. And McCain is trying very hard to reach people to vote for him. Including the college students. I think he should try the college circuits to inspire the students to vote for him. He has time.

  • I'm tired of hearing the same old comments from McCain's people that Obama is inexperienced and young. We gave a chance to a person just like McCain and he has ruined our economy....wasn't he "experienced and over qualified"? It is time for a change and a fresh mind. Obama is the future of this country. If McCain wins he will continue the decomposition and destruction of our country... and I will move to Europe! Bush criticizes Robert Mugabe (President of Zimbabwe) for his ruining of the economy and rigging of elections, killing of people and being the scum of the earth (which he is) but Bush is just the same! He is ruining our economy and I am getting tired of seeing people like him trying to represent us and don't do anything for the betterment of our country!

  • I totally agree w/the ad..I have been saying for months that they treat Obama likes he's a rock star. I don't want a rock star running my country..if I did, I'd vote for someone like Rod Stewert or the Rolling Stones. Where's the press for McCain?? Isn't there suppose to be a fair balance?? Don't see that here.

  • Looks like Mc Cain is rather in serious trouble and seeking ways to distract the voters!

  • Obama is definitely just fluff and no substance. Just wait for the debates and his lack of expertise will definitely show. He certainly cannot be compared to someone of relevance. He has yet to give a definite statement on his plans for "change"

    • Didn't McCain finish second to last in his graduating class at the Naval Academy?

      Obama? Magna Cum Laude at Harvard.

  • Mr.McCain is desperate! He is missing the point. What we don't need or want is the same old thing in the White House. Experience is a word used by people that do things the same old way. Give me a Smart Guy that will learn fast and does things different. Maybe we'll get out of the mess that "Bush" put us in.

  • I think it's ridiculous! He should focus on making campaign commercials that discuss HIS stances on issues rather than on making ones that only seek to attach his opponent. Obama's commercials at least speak to actual issues!

  • I think Obama is going around kissing as much butt as he can from who ever he can and trying to "look like" the "good guy". Him & Hilary should have been thrown out a long time ago for there cat fights. If you can't can't play nice, you should play at all.

  • McCain was a POW, he know's war & hard times. He stayed out of the BS until he was pushed to his limit. It was Clinton & Obama playing in the mud. How soon everyone forgets!

  • McBush is the airhead and knows Obama is smarter and more astute. All Mcsame can do is go negative. God help us if his tatcis work!

    • Obama is not smarter, he has great writers and knows how to deliver a speech. He has NO substance. Look beyond the glitz. I'm not saying McCain has the answers, but Obama is clueless.

  • Not agree with that. But then some you win and some you loose so you need to do something to stay in the spotlight. They all the same till they have to do something then they completely otherwise. Put your money where your money is they say

  • this ad is abolutely ridiculous and immature- clearly mccain feels insecure about his standing in the candidacy, and he is resorting to pathetic insinuations that Obama is just a 'celebrity'
    his way of lashing out definitely shows what kind of man Mccain is... and its getting pathetic.
    Vote OBAMA !!!

  • I'm tired of John McCain already!! He needs to come up with something genuine. Don't wait until Obama says something, then ridicule it. we've already put up with 8 years of that crap. The best thing McCain could do for this country is drop out. He has no vision, clue, or direction!! 8 years is enough !! Time for change!!

  • To the loon who commented on the 31st -->You would vote for British rock stars before an American? My country is spiraling out of control. I am an expat (moved in 2006 for obvious reasons) and to look in from the outside on my country, it's pathetic. I wish all Americans could step out of their egos and see what's really happening in our country. And stop the dang finger-pointing and childish mind games ya'll! It's embarrassing for our nation.

  • McCain's comparison is completely ridiculous!!

  • I've listened to speeches and comments by both nominees and all I'm hearing is polished political rhetoric from their speech writers. It's amazing how a candidate can talk for thirty minutes without saying anything of true substance or commitment. I did find Paris' spoof funny and refreshing (and her energy plan makes perfect sense). Hats off to HER speech writer!

  • you can tell the majority of people on here by these polls. People who don't pay attention to the truth. McCain stated the obvious that wasn't being said. Why was Obama in Europe? Is he running for president of the world
