John McCain's campaign has released another :30 second TV spot, titled "Advice."



The guilt by association approach to issues is never as effective as campaigns tend to think they are. But it can have impact.

It'll take the media less than a news cycle to call this ad racist, I'm sure.

It's not but they need content to sell.

However, aside from the issue of Freddie Mac, this ad starts to accomplish something more important for team McCain. It underscores the risk and danger of electing Barack Obama who is so untested and unknown.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
