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.
