a little bit of fun

There has been a blitz of negative ads recently from both candidates. The most controversial negative ad released by the Obama campaign raises the fact that McCain doesn't know how to send an email. The talk of the grapevine has been that he doesn't type on computers because of the injuries he sustained to his arms when he was prisonner of war (POW) in Vietnam. Another negative ad put forth by the Obama camp relies heavily on a misguided comment made by McCain in September ; he had declared that the "fundamentals of the economy were strong" in at the outset of the massive market failure America is now going through. 

From the Republican side, negative ads have mostly concerned Obama's connection with a William Ayers a member of a terrorist network in the 1960s. This ad was not paid for by the McCain campaign per se. 

A cheeky commentary by Jon Stewart:
