Obama's Second TV Ad Hits Issues
Sen. Barack Obama's effort to define himself in 18 battleground states took a new turn today when he started airing an ad titled "Dignity," which heralds his limited legislative experience as a boon to middle Americans. According to the campaign, "the spot highlights Senator Obama's decision to bypass big money jobs and help lift neighborhoods stung by job loss. The ad illustrates Senator Obama's record of working hard to move people from welfare to work, passing tax cuts for workers, and providing healthcare for children." It airs in Alaska, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Virginia. It follows a mostly biographical ad that also highlighted his decision to skip job offers on Wall Street to move instead to Chicago, where he became a community organizer.

All too easy....
Brilliant idea to highlight elitist aspects of biography that play into the hands of his opponents' narrative and do it on your own dime?
And why not give ME five minutes to talk down to you about the things I've never done and convince you I am expert in!
No seriously the schools are doing their job in this country!!!!!!
The Maturity of the Electorate
I continue to be amazed by the responses of many to comments made in the campaing. I am of the opinion that most responses are clouded by the responders' ideologies and have less to do with the content of the comments to which they respond.
I often wonder whether my understanding of the English Language is different from those who construe statements so diametrically different from me.
As a case in point, I am at a loss at the fuss made of the comments of General Wesley Clark. Nowhere in that statement does General Clark bellitle or demean Senator McCain"s military service to this country. The statement deals specifically with qualifications to lead this Nation. Will someone, therefore, tell me what the fuss is all about? Shouldn't the electorate be more mature and display a greater modicum of intelligence?
