  • Palin/McSame exposed!

  • Finally the gloves are coming off with the lying and thieving Repugnicans. Kill them, Obama!

  • Awesome ad!! Air this one in EVERY battleground state!!

  • "I didn't decide to run for president to start a national crusade for the political reforms I believed in or to run a campaign as if it were some grand act of patriotism. In truth, I wanted to be president because it had become my ambition to be president ... In truth, I'd had the ambition for a long time."

    - John McCain (from his autobiography)

    your vote is your power. you can vote for judgment and character or you can use your vote to feed an old man's ego.

    Obama/Biden '08

  • Nicely done. More of this please. please. please. We need a little humor in this campaign and entertainment!

  • Wow, what a screwed up game

  • When will this air in Nevada?

  • great ad.. made me laugh. and i never laugh

  • visuals make learning easy!

  • Im SOOO PISSED, MCCAIN IS OUT THERE THROWING LIES ABOUT OBAMA AND DEFENDING THEM. SADLY, ITS WORKING.

    But forget that, Why the hell isn't the obama campaign throwing a Nuclear Response to John McCain's bullshit. His campaign has said that they don't care what the media say;s about thier ads, that they are campaining for the win. In that case, If obama can't throw something back they will indeed win.

  • If Obama is elected and he's able to get his agenda passed our country will never recover. He will sell out his own friends for a vote. He will ignore the voice of the people and just tell you want to think. He's sold out all of his past associations that got him here. He thinks government should take care of everyone. Just look at his actions, he's given less than 3% to charities over the past 5yrs. He wants to use YOUR money to help, not his own. DO NOT VOTE FOR THIS MAN.

  • obama i love you but you need to redo the ad and instead of reading let someone speak because viewers aint gonna read the ad.

  • HECK YEA! GET AT HIM!

  • Great job Obama! Keep things classy, while telling it like it is.

    No need for blatant lies and smear ads like Mcsame's camp. The people of America are waking up, and they are beginning to see McCain and Palin for what they really are.

  • john mccain will win the elecetion and once again i will be happy with our president

  • Another false and misleading ad! Tell us what you will DO OBama, and stop misrepresenting John McCain. Lobbyist is not a dirty word. Lobbyist simply represent groups of people in Washington.

  • sorry dude, but you havent been paying attention to mccains adds... at least obamas ads are grounded in truth

    mccain lies about obamas tax plans, the lipstick remarks ( WHICH HE HIMSELF MADE ABOUT HILLARY) and about sex eds for kids (COMPLETLEY FALSE.... OBAMA DIDNT EVEN VOTE FOR IT)

  • Facts are not misleading half-truths are, did you see any half-truths?

    Lobbying is bribery. It serves no purpose at all. Representation is done with people not money. The people in politics make the laws and that's the only reason it's legal.

  • Oh yeah. I remember when my job was outsourced to India because Bush/McCain gave my company tax breaks to set up overseas offices. My family wrote to the corporate lobbyists to thank them.

    You're an idiot.

  • Keep at it Obama team. I believe in you and you've got my vote!

  • OH MAN this ad killed lol

  • excellent way to make the point... especially with McCain being a fan of gambling establishments.

  • John McCain and Sarah Palin Bought and Sold to You by Lobbyists

  • Great AD! How do we get it on TV?

  • It's not meant for TV, it's 60 seconds. TV spots are always 30. There's another, more traditional ad about the lobbyist connections, though, that is on TV.

  • Great Ad. Please air it in Illinois so i can see it on my tv.

  • lmao

  • McCain's choice has been greeted as a cynical political ploy, a depressing return to the culture wars and damaging to efforts to broaden the evangelical dialogue

  • To quote Plutonwolf:

    "With a net worth of over $100,000,000.00 he can afford to gamble. I can't"

    Obama/Biden 08

  • lmao

    Obama 08

  • Love It!

  • Well, this is cute. In fact it's just silly, and there's too much reading. Lots of people simply won't wade through all that text.

    The Obama campaign needs to spell out in SIMPLE language the difference between his tax plan and McCain's. For instance: Obama wants to undo the massive tax cuts Bush wrote in for the rich, the cuts McCain himself opposed in 2002. McCain wants more of the same.

    Find a film of McCain denouncing the tax cuts. And use voice-overs, NOT lots of text.

  • Great ad! I LOVE IT!!!!!

  • McCain = New World Order agenda

  • This is the same music as the 90% Bush ad. I love it.

  • great ad

    obama 08!!!

  • Does Obama support or reject the ban on online gambling?

  • What is Senator John McCain going to do for veterans when he becomes POTUS? Is he going to treat them the same way he does as senator? No thanks, I'll pass on the McBush/Pitbull ticket. No Way, McCain 08.

  • HarshPorkChop - Everyone wants to keep the money they earn with hard work, innovation and intelligence. But to quote George Carlin, "The game has been rigged." The "rich" in this country - Keep their money made Above the Board... but there has to be alternatives (tax incentives, tariffs, honest and fair regulations) to reward these people for SHARING their wealth with those who are outside the system. There has to be a better way than allowing those in power to just syphon their wealth away.

  • McCain is the ultimate Washington insider.

  • excellent.

  • big money big money!

  • Very good.

  • haha! heads they win, tails we lose.

    I really like this one...a very good visual image under a McCain presidency. It's simple and to the point, all in one minute.

  • Very boring ad. Obama should be able to come up with something much better than this!

  • Poor republicans, the truth must hurt so bad.

  • Haha...Darn! SO CLOSE!

  • I wish the Obama campaign would start running ads showing McCain saying how much he was for the war (long before the surge), saying how we need to invade Iraq and how he said it would be a 'short' war and how it was over after the "Mission Accomplished" debacle. Also, let's reintroduce America to the Keating Five, shall we? The ads can be devastating without a single lie spoken. McCain has written the material for you guys -- why not use it?

  • I like it but I think it is too nice. Don't be so nice.

  • Is the Obama campaign running out of money. That ad was downright awful. The only gamble is on the ad itself.

  • This ad is brilliant. I've seen every ad this political season and this is far and away the best.

  • I'm a McCain supporter..

    but I got to admit this ad has some great originality to it.

  • "net worth of 100 million" ??

    At face value it sounds like Mccain made something out of himself...

    quick factcheck

    Mccain's dad, a navy general, helped him into navy-school, where he ended at the rock bottom of his class.. As a pilot, he skipped reading the flight manuals and wrecked 3 planes.. Imagine the cost.

    At age 43, McCain dumped his disabled wife and 2 kids, to web a 24-yr old heiress, who had a drugabuse problem (she stole drugs from a charity she was workng for..).

  • Well, this ad is certainly better than wolves and Paris Hilton.

  • I think you've nailed it!

    I'm tired of the Pit-bullshit!!!

  • This is a add that more People need/should see !!

  • McCain has really disappointed me in this campaign. I voted for him in 2000. Switched from Republican to Independent after the invasion of Iraq.

    Obama inspires me. McCain depresses me.

  • Awesome! Is this going to air on tv?

  • Ad's a little rough around the edges, but the message is good.

  • Hope you didn't spend to much on this ad.

  • I didn't like this video. It's obviously made by a different team than the usual folks and it doesn't really fit with the rest.

    What's true is that McCain has been better at convincing the media that he's a maverick than other Republicans, but his campaign for the past several months has been a lot of nonsense.

    Whoever made this ad should be working for McCain. It doesn't quite cohere.

  • register to vote TODAY! deadline is october

    enough is enough! obama 08!

  • Interesting except for the sound effects.

  • nicely done. expose the liars for what they are.

    McCain/Palin don't care about America, they care about their own prestige, power, and pockets

  • For the love of God, please run this on TV.

    It's a shame that Obama's going to have to resort to ad attacking McCain, but McCain's ads have gone TOO far.

  • That's one game i don't one to play for the next 4 years. :(

    Obama/biden 08'

  • Haha I love it.

  • Another advert that tells the truth about McSame.

    Negative but necessary.

    (Intersperse this with some adverts on what Obama will do to change America)

  • I approve this message!!!

  • I am an American and I approve that message.

    Well Done!

  • I think the US option doesn't exist.

    Everything should be L :)

    Obama/Biden '08

  • incredibly clever ad this was- yoda

  • This is cute, and largely true, I believe; but, it's playing the opposition's game.

  • I actually think I could make a better ad than this. What the hell?

  • hahahahahahaha...this is aggressively smart.

  • mcsame and painlin are a bunch of liars. i was independent now i know who im voting for. "i said thanks but no thanks to the bridge to no where" LIE! she was for it! I sold the plane on ebay. LIE! she sold it through a broker for less money! I fired the governer's personal chef. LIE! the chef is still working for her! Alaska is next to Russia so i have foreign policy experience. WRONG! Come on people wake up! how many times you have to be hit over the head to realize who is hitting you!

  • John McCain is a hobbyist,problem is, his hobby is lobbyists.......Vote Obama/Biden 2008!

  • omg! this is excellent!!!

  • Anyone seen the polls lately? Obama already lost his once insurmountable lead over McCain and the gap is widening every day.

    Looks like we'll have 4 more years of McSame simply because the sight of a moderately attractive woman makes people forget all the problems brought to you by the last 8 years of Republican rule in Washington.

    McCain may know nothing about running the country, but he certainly knows how to take advantage of a good VP pick.

  • America elected bush and gave the Democrats gave him a half trillion dollars to start his presidency with. He blew it and 3 Trillion on Iraq. The next President is going to have to at least reduce the debt. McCain/Palin is not going to do that. They will get us further in debt by trying to find the Rabbit hole where the terrorsists are lurking. A better idea? Lets get on with our lives and just kill the terrorists when they poke their heads out.

  • Clever

  • The Music Is PRICELESS. It reminds me of a Cohen Brothers movie

  • Ha!!!!

  • I hope this is run on prime time

  • Very clever..hope they do one on Palin and her lying.

  • I really want Obama to win, but as an 'ad' this doesn't work. They are trying to convey far too much detailed information in a short space of time. The average dumb American voter doesn't want their TV time to feel like homework - they'll just mentally switch off.

    Ads should be punchy and to the point. Obama needs a much better ad agency who actually gets how to get through to the average voter. The people who would appreciate this ad are already voting Obama/Biden.

  • This commercial is too sleepy. When is Obama going to finally stand up and fight back with force?

  • Sorry, but this is not good enough. Who the hell is creating Obama's commercials? He needs to be much more hard-hitting. Compare it to McCain's latest which reaches out and viciously mocks Obama while elevating Palin to some kind of saint. WHEN IS OBAMA GOING TO TAKE THE GLOVES OFF?!!

  • Lame.... that's why he's going to lose.

  • This was a pretty bad ad... This in spite of being a diehard Obama supporter.

  • At least it deals with FACTS...mccain just keeps lying

  • That is quite possibly the worst political as I have ever seen.

  • Obama 08. What's the difference between Jerry Falwell and the Governor of Alaska? Lipstick.

  • better then the dirt slangin the republicans do in their ads

  • I love the new offensive, it is simply FANTASTIC

  • GREAT VID!!! funny too lol.

  • Memorable! One of the best ads so far. In addition to the percentage of Lobbyist influence over ours, McCain is himself a huge risk, takes huge risks, and will if in office. And Palin, the biggest gamble so far, is clearly imploding.

  • Excellent video! Too true.

  • This ad sucks. John McCain is actually a VERY smart man. A hero, a patriot, and a true leader. America needs this man as our next President. McCain/Palin '08!

  • Now that's what I'm talking about! Oh! Wait! Something is...!

    *THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!*

    Thanks to LOBBYISTS, the BUSH ADMINISTRATION AND IT'S FAVORABLE POLICIES TO CORPORATE PROFITS. We now have a Going Out of Business SALE. MAJOR CORPORATIONS SUCH AS FANNIE MAE AND FREDDIE MAC: $0.50/sh. FORECLOSED PROPERTIES: NATIONWIDE. THE U.S. DOLLAR: $0.75!!! DEEP DISCOUNT SHOPPING! HURRY! Sale ends Jan. 20 if Obama is elected.

    *THIS HAS BEEN A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!*

  • Take a note from the McCain attack ads...Obama can do better than this..the points are great..the delivery not so much

  • Great video.

  • Very effective ad, and it's true.

  • Great job! Keep running the true about Bush/Mccain. Obama 08!

  • lollllllll hilarious, too bad it's true.

    OBAMA '08.

  • I get it. I really do. But dear God, what is this? Seriously, who put this together?!

    There's nothing in this web-ad that isn't true, and that's loads better than what McCain can claim. But who's running the messaging guys over there? This is hokey and completely uninspiring. It feels like someone is running a version of the 4-corners offense over there.

    I'm ready for the change. Obama '08 and all. But save this stuff for...I don't even know what. It's not making your case at all.

  • Great keep them coming... The truths will set us free...

  • I like this. I think for many right wingers to really "get it", pre-school level is about right.

    Oh, and rickvh, there are plenty of places on the web you can find information about what Obama is really going to do. And he talks about it all the time.

    Obama/Biden '08

  • cool ad. hit mccain on his ties to lobbyists.

  • more

  • For a man talking about the working class protector he sure doesn't have any clue about what a working man is like. If I was a self described elitest the first thing I would do is fool the fools and pretend to care about the little people as long as nobody ever questioned it.

    Palin/McCain 08

  • LOL, this is a good one, keep 'em Barack!

  • Awesome!!Keep it up.

    Obama/Biden 08!

  • Bam! Bam!! Pow!!!

  • We can't afford to gamble America's future away!

    NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MCCAIN/PALIN!

  • Very nice ad.

  • That's right! Spread the truth.

    There's something called accountability. If McCain wants to complain about the "tone of the campaign", ask him to talk about the issues at hand.

  • cool

  • very creative

  • Haha, I hope this turns out to be one of the more memorable ads during the campaign. Excellent work.

  • McSame/Palin not worth the gamble.

  • weak and boring... you guys can do better than this

  • With a net worth of over $100,000,000.00 he can afford to gamble. I can't

    Obama/Biden 08

  • now that is just childish.

    Still, Obama 08

  • WE GOTTA DO WHAT WE GOTTA DO

  • Not childish at all. Makes a point in a very clever and memorable way.

    Love Obama

    Obama/Biden 08

  • Seriously, this ad looked like it was made in a pre-school. In case you didnt notice, the more of the same slogan should be changed because everyone knows its change/reform.

    Quit being little crybaby hippies and tell us what Obama is really going to do if you want people to vote.

  • what the hell are you talking about? McCain is "more of the same" - if you want change or reform, he is not the candidate for you...

    what's so hard to understand about that?

    crybaby hippies? Obama has outlined his plans many times - if you can't look past his party affiliation to acknowledge that, it's your own problem. Go ahead & be ignorant and uninformed - Only know that's what the rethugs want.

    What is McCain specifically going to do? Other than continue the same policies as G.W. ?

  • Why don't you try listening to him. Why don't you go to the website? Why don't you research?

  • "Quit being little crybaby hippies and tell us what Obama is really going to do if you want people to vote."

    Sharing the details of his plans is all he and his campaign have been doing for weeks. Where have you been? This is part of a fresh offensive against John McCain, on the issues.

    And you can't really say that when John McCain says NOTHING about what his plans are for education, the war, the economy or health care, and spends his time and his media budget doing nothing but smearing.

  • people like you want a reason to not vote for Mr. Obama and since people like you don't listen to what he has to say no matter how many specifics he gives you, it's no use. You must be old and out of touch like McPalin Bush if you're STILL talking about hippies.

  • he already did

  • Wow. You must be desperate dude.

  • The more of the same is what Obama camp use about McCain. Obama is for change, and eventually McCain copied that.

  • I say about the only time I ever heard Obama say what he was going to do for the country is when he took the nomination for presidency.

    And thats pretty much the only time

    Every other time its "McCain+Being Like Bush=BAD

  • ...he said it all at the DNC...you can find it on youtube...his acceptance speech...if you're really interested...

  • If you truly want to know what Obama is going to do, you can easily go to his website. It has been up for over 19 months.

  • ok. This is what Obama will do, in 500 characters: Make college affordable with a $4000/year tuition credit. Close achievment gap though early education. Make healthcare affordable, give 3 TIMES more tax breaks to middle class than McCain, stop spending $10billion/month in Iraq and instead invest in infrastructure and energy indipendence. He'll stop giving tax cuts to companies that ship jobs to China. Improve our military, finish the job in Afghanistan and capture Bin Laden.

    Specific enough?

  • Why don't you click on Barack's link and read up on his plans. Surely you love your country enough to spend a bit of time reading about what the candidates really have to offer.

  • He has, many times. Watch some of his debates, public appearances, etc.

  • Have you not been listening? Why don't you listen to his speeches. He'll tell you exactly what he's going to do.

  • Obama tells the truth, and is respectful to others. He is also very sharp, and is able to force others around him to do the same. He embodies exactly the change we need in Washington, and he is already bringing that needed to change to the campaign trail.

  • A vote for Obama is a vote for the money that rich people should have to give to us.

  • not even close. It's a vote to have rich people and corporations do their share of the work - and do it honestly.

    I work hard for my money - why do I pay more of my money to the government than they do - and get less out of it.

    Because they have the money to pay off the government.

    it has to stop. McSame will not stop it.

  • HAHA! Seriously? I do understand that the tax cuts should not be dealt to those on "easy street," but how do you think they got there? A large cooperation said hey, you seem like a smart guy, want to be our head adviser? Those that spent time to get the education in order to make the money most definitely deserve it.

  • No, HarshP, it's a vote saying that rich people should pay their fare share too. People get rich in this country because there is opportunity, an educated workforce, an infrastructure, domestic safety, etc. All of these have to be paid for. As for those who inherit their wealth (the majority) they ought to kick in too, especially in times like these.

    In WWII people put up with way higher taxes, gas rationing, a draft. We won the war AND saved the economy.

    Today's rich would rather whine.

  • mclobbist..awesome

  • Very effective

  • McCain can't even reform his campaign!

  • Great odds this video hits the spot!

  • niceee

  • Weak. The war chest must be about empty.

  • The thought of McCain in office scares me... I'm just starting college and the economy needs to improve or I don't think I can afford it at this rate. :(

  • Good video guys. McLobbyist. haha.

  • good one

  • This would be the best ad ever if Obama supporters could read.

  • I like the video, I think it has a bit more of an emotional impact. I'd like to see ads on TV that hit harder on the emotional level. People respond to that. I'd like to see a campaign of "Where's John McCain?"

    -where's the McCain who said he would stay honorable in his campaign? Where's the McCain who supposedly bucked his party? Where's McCain's comments on issues (too busy focusing on lipstick) etc.

  • But he's a maverick!! And a POW! Country first!! Reformer!! Pay no attention to the men behind the man.

  • Love it!!! OBAMA BIDEN 08!!!

  • air it on tv!!!!!!

  • I LOVE THIS AD!! It's simple and effective!! Please release this to TV as well!!

    GREAT JOB!!!!

  • Nicely done everyone! Best yet! Tells a great story and gets your point across so quickly! Keep it up!

    How 'bout a tombstone with "Straight Talk Express" on it or the Straight Talk Express bus sitting in a junk yard getting rusty and dusty because it doesn't get used anymore??

  • I love it!

  • This could not be more accurate and just plain awesome! ☻☺☻☺☻☺☻

  • GREAT!!

  • C'mon man I thought you was better than this!

    Obama/Biden 08

  • This ad's kind of awkward without any narration

  • Excelent Portrayal. This depiction of McLobbyist's campaign just nails it!

    Please share this with all your contacts. Please DO YOUR PART to seize back our Country.

  • lol that was great,very clever. I like Obama and he has my vote. One thing I don't like though is when you leave a text comment it has to "wait for approval" before it's allowed to be posted. Is this freedom of speach or possibly censorship because that would be troubling if it were. I wonder if this comment will be allowed to post???

  • Please share this with all your friends and contacts! We have to each do our part to take our Country back.

  • TRUTH WINS!

  • brilliant video!!!

    OBAMA/BIDEN '08!!!!

  • Excelent portrayal. This depiction nails it!

  • this is genius, make it for TV and more clear in the beginning and it good to go.

  • Awsome, and that is the way it is, John Mcsame is more of the same, he has not stood with us, he stands with big oil and others who don't have our best interest at heart. He can't win on issues, because he has not been on the right side for years. Shame on you John Mccain, shame on you the press for not calling him on his dirty lies. Obama Biden, our only hope for a better tomorrow.

  • Is this a political ad?

    How lame, or should we say O-lameba

    at this rate I hope you like President McCain

    or should we say President McChange

  • I like it. Where can we contribute to get this on TV in swing states

  • McAwesome!

  • I like it
