Anti-Obama ads

This ad from the North Carolina Republican Party has been garnering a great deal of attention.

The attention is mainly due to John McCain calling it offensive. 

Since McCain doesn’t want to do the smart thing and define a possible opponent should we expect to hear him denouncing this ad:

or maybe this ad:

I have to agree with this assessment of the situation.

The person who seems to be “out of touch with reality” is John McCain!

Earth to John…….

The reality is that you are at best, accepted by the conservative base and not truly supported by it.

The reality is that if the Democrats had a nomination process that made sense, they would have had a nominee in March and you would face double digit deficits in every poll taken.

The reality is the longer we keep the Democrats fighting (yes, while the primary focus is the Governor’s race, the ad surely helps reraise the concern about Obama) the better your chances get.

The reality is that rather than on your opponents, you use your harshest criticisms and comments on those you should be most aligned with.

The reality is I’m getting sick and tired of hearing from you.

I’d add that a true leader defines his opponent at every opportunity so maybe this is another sign that McCain isn’t the right choice for the GOP.
