Republican presidential candidate John McCain chided his Democratic rival on Wednesday for getting "a little testy" as Barack Obama sharpened his tone amid a tightening White House race that gets nastier by the day.
"I honor his service. I don't honor his policies. I don't honor his politics," Obama said, taking on his GOP opponent with renewed vigor while some Democrats fret that their candidate has not been aggressive enough.
Both candidates also unveiled fresh attack advertisements ahead of their back-to-back national conventions.
Trying anew to tie McCain to the unpopular President Bush, Obama's TV commercial asks: "Can we really afford more of the same?" It slams McCain's tax plan as a giveaway for big corporations and oil companies. McCain's radio ad claims: "Celebrities like to spend their millions. Barack Obama is no different. Only it's your money he wants to spend."

Homer Simpson style “doh” each time his head hits the wall!
We will see what the 29th brings.
Dumbo is forced to pick first
I'd like to see some law-enforcement-types do a commercial about Bill Ayers--and the type of threat that terrorists like Ayers (and their friends like Obama) pose to the US.
The McCain campaign has noticed the value of regularly poking Obama with a stick to make him hiss.
Don’t you think that Romney would destroy whoever ObaMarx chooses for vp?
Funny and effective graphic.
Obama’s thin skin seems to get thinner all the time. Not a good trait in a politician. Pretty soon he’ll be yelling “Who you callin “boy”, old man?” The RATS are having a harder and harder time covering up his incompetence.
What is Baramas deal?
He goes buggy in attacking McCain and brings up the Paris Hilton thing again weeks after people had forgotten about it.
“Man I dont have time for that mess”
Well, Barama you just refreshed everyones memory,and beyond all that, I dont get “why” it pisses him off so much.
He was the first person to equate his celebrity status to Paris.
Something is eating at the boy and McCain knows it! L0L
L0L!
OBama is thin skinned because he thinks his world view is the one true way and anyone against him is just a stupid, ignorant bother.
McCain does so remind me of Truman, his size, walk, style...it is amazing. Right now McCain exudes that famous leftist media thing called GRAVITAS. Obambi is a rude, pompous, bratty kid throwing tantrums.
Romney has a way of cutting you up in such a respectful way you don’t figure it out for five minutes.
Yes. Despite his Drive-By-Media-created image as some sort of pious Mormon prig, Romney, like McCain, has a wicked sense of humor.
And that plays with America wayyyyyy better than a campaign which tries to make its candidate some sort of pre-ordained deity.
Obama is testy because he has PMS.
That McCain is a racist. Today he says, “testy”, which ends in “y” just like “uppity”. It’s a racist code letter for sure.
Because such an accusation would make no sense.
McCain then pressed his attack. "Washington is full of talented talkers," McCain said. "The bottom line is that Sen. Obama's words, for all their eloquence and passion, don't mean all that much."
Zing!!!!
Obama: Doesn't know much. Hasn't done much. Let's make him president!!
