An easy anti-McCain (or any GOP pol) ad: Do pop ups on one of their ''wasteful spending" commercials

[yurbud]

that compare the nickel and dime Dem programs they are bitching about to the billions of no bid contracts, lost money, and so on that they have voted for.

For example, McCain did a really lame commercial about Hillary voting a couple of million for a Woodstock museum. Wasteful or not, Halliburton or Blackwater wouldn't bend over to pick up that much money if it was lying on the ground--they'd demand BILLIONS.

1. Could work...

Maybe a graphic of how many Woodstock museums stacked on top of each other it would take to equal the amount of money lost due to, oh say, "cost plus" waste. How many Bear DNA studies (with a huge pile of grizzlies) it would take to equal the amount of paper currency lost after being shipped on palettes to Iraq for "payrolls", etc.

That and it would be nice to bludgeon people over the head with the fact that McCain can point to just about any bill, pick something stupid from it to ridicule, and say the only reason he voted against, oh say a minimum wage increase, is "because of the pork".

Then maybe a cartoon or paste-up-over-video of McCain hallucinating pig-heads on other people, which devolves into him running to an airplane, dogfighting with a bunch of pig-headed fighter pilots, and crashing in to whitehouse dome with a convincingly disasterous explosion.

2. I like the stacks. The pigheads got confusing toward the end.

3. Basically what I'm getting at...

...is portraying McCain as a crazy bat who sees pork wherever he looks even when it isn't there.

Given the latest news about his campaign advisors (who were lobbyists for Airbus) being behind his investigation of also-corrupt Boeing and the controversial contract award that resulted from that is starting to make people wonder whether McCain is himself corrupt or just naive and easily manipulated by his advisors. Either way you answer that question McEnron loses.
