John McCain being made to look, um, 25 years younger in campaign ad
C&L posted earlier this week about FOX News possibly trying to make McCain look a little younger, well now it appears that the McCain campaign is going out of their way to make John look like a new man—25 years younger or more with this campaign ad.



Check out this ad that was picked up off of this article Germany’s English paper called The Local. At the very end there is the above graphic to represent what John McCain looks like. Hmmmm, looks like a completely different man to me. One that is much younger. Is this running only in foreign markets? I emailed the McCain camp for comment.

5. Are you sure that is John McCain? Sure doesn't look like him.
Maybe he is the captain of the Team they want you to join.

13. Who is that going to fool?
I've seen a video clip where he looks like this. But he has sweaty armpits. Guess he could raise his arms above his head then.
