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."

"Yup, the McCain camp has discovered that it is damned easy and really pretty funny. Frying ants with a magnifying glass isn't nearly as amusing (for one thing, the ants are smarter than Obambi's advisers). "

Yeah...all 300 Obambi advisers....I guess they work shifts so the golden boy has 24 hour coverage.

Must be a few heads have exploded.

We saw McCain’s motorcade today- all of the sudden it struck me how funny Straight Talk Express is considering his opponent. It hit me when the bus went by and I just started laughing. Obama’s bus should say Lying Express.

"Celebrities like to spend their millions. Barack Obama is no different. Only it's your money he wants to spend."

Just had to put it in bold. Perfect bumper sticker material.

The next thing we know, he’ll get snippy!

How refreshing, an unbiased Obama political report. /sarc

[Dustbunny]

Next thing you know, the MSM will be commenting on how older and wiser Obama looks now with his dyed gray hair at his temples.

Uh oh! Clean up in post #44! “Snippy.” Another of those racist ends-with-a-y words.

[The Anointed One will end up like Horace Greeley did after the 1872 loss to U. S. Grant - go gibbering mad and die within a week.]

Hopefully, he will find a good therapist and start at the very beginning....

Obama has a sensitive spot which is easy to poke. It's his ego. He started to believe all of the media gushing over him and the fainting of people in the crowds. His head was blown up like a big balloon. Can't wait till it goes POP!

Rattle Obama baby.

he can't take it.

Like any other liberal he gets all emotional and blows it.

[nmh]

Don’t you think that Romney would destroy whoever ObaMarx chooses for vp?

He'd chew him up and spit him out before Obama baby even knew what happened. Mitt would rattle the hell out of him with a smile on his face.

[nmh]

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.

That’s RIGHT and why I like seeing him rattled.

He really screws up.

"Rubber Room Obama" cannot run, and has nowhere to hide.

“Sounds like the maverick just gave the messiah a wedgee.”

No.

More like he put him in a safety harness and after securing the line to the top of a skyscraper, thew him off.

Its called a super wedgee.
