Barack Obama and his campaign team wasted no time hitting back at rival John McCain, who today released an add attacking Obama's international popularity.
In this Obama advert – entitled "The Low Road" – McCain's painted as a negative nancy who simply can't escape old school Republican nastiness. Oh, and there's also some bit about Obama's energy policy, a tax cut for the middle class and the candidate's commitment to alternative energy sources.
Take a peak, after the jump…

Wow…Obama is running for president.
i surpport him.i hate John McCain. However my brother told me he saw he and his lover's photo at a black dating site called ukblackfriends.com. I have seen their photos, blogs there…maybe you should have a look
OMG! That is worst spamming ad [Emily] that I have ever seen in my life!
It made me laugh out loud.
GREAT ad!
Put him on Bush's lap until the election.
Smart using media quotes damning McCain as BASELESS and BALONEY.
OBAMA UNVEILS BOLD NEW ENERGY PLAN:

Ohh the Messiaaaah!
Isn't it spelled "bologna"?
Just saying…
The ad leaves a bad taste.
republicans are just cunts.
as soon as I wrote that, I regretted it. My apologies, it made me no better than them. I get frustrated at how mean spirited people can be, and I did the exact same thing. I am sorry.
i can't believe that mccain is trying to undermine obama by attacking his POPULARITY. all his recent adverts come off as promotions for obama. dont think it's going to work…
I don't think voters will buy this crap this time around. Not after almost 30 years of GOP policies that have hurt working class Americans. If the American people fall for this and McCain gets elected, then I guess we get exactly what we deserve.
well what concerns me are the ignorant people out there who get there talking points from fox news and believe them to be the truth. i'm in alabama where people still believe he's an undercover muslim…
^^^Daniel, with all due respect, I don't think it matters what people in Alamba think any more than what people in, say, Massachusetts think. Those electoral votes are all-but counted.
It's too bad Obama didn't take the high road. But those consultants have got to earn those high fees I guess.
Я ненавижу реÑпубликанцев
Почему должны реÑпубликанцы быть такими ненавиÑтниками? Почему они ненавидÑÑ‚ голубые людей? Длиной живут демократы!
I have nothing to add except these cute faces made from Russian script. \( 'д')/ (ч_ч )o-~~~~
That, and the fact that this ad is pretty tame compared to the McCain smears and the whole Republican side in general. I hope Obama's campaign keeps it tame and lets McCain continue to besmirch and embarrass himself.
Compared to the churlish childish Britney ad…Obama's ad looks like he's the GROWN UP.
Is it True that Paris-Britney are running on the "Like, No, Totally Wow. OMG you did not just txt that!" platform?
BTW – McCain for death in his sleep.
PS – Carla Bruni for American First Lady!
