I think’s way overdoing it with playing this card

I disagree. I think the GOP has been playing the nice guy and getting kicked in the stones for far too many elections. A better ad, perhaps, would have video bytes of the Dems charges and then a factual rebuttal of those charges. Still, I'm pleased that the GOP is fighting back this year. Personally, the only reason I think they are even trying this smear campaign is because they've done it in the past and the GOP rolled over and played dead. Not my kind of party to run from a fight.

I think it is setting things up, so if 0bama says anything sexist or disrespectful again about Palin, it is over.

Even yesterday when it was supposed to be a campaign free day, he said ‘Mayors have some of the toughest jobs in the country, because that’s where the rubber hits the road. We yak in the Senate. They actually have to fill potholes and trim trees and make sure the garbage is taken away.’

It is just so childish and petty.

When you have Obama’s lackeys like Matt Damon and that airhead that told Palin to “suck it”, you make ads like this to tie it all back to Obama being desperate.

It elegantly makes their attacks, his attacks.

I dunno ... Obama just came out with an attack ad about McCain's computer skill "deficit." If McCain is saying stop with the personal attacks (echoing Obama's statement) and then Obama launches an over-the-top attack, the timing couldn't be better for McCain.
