Factoid of the day (McCain).

[kstewart33]

From Political Wire:

Business Week's marketing and advertising correspondent David Kiley notes that Sen. John McCain's recent ad asserting that Sen. Barack Obama wouldn't visit wounded troops in Germany unless cameras were allowed "is a lie. It's a blatant lie."

"What the McCain campaign doesn't want people to know, according to one GOP strategist I spoke with over the weekend, is that they had an ad script ready to go if Obama had visited the wounded troops saying that Obama was...wait for it...using wounded troops as campaign props. So, no matter which way Obama turned, McCain had an Obama bashing ad ready to launch. I guess that's political hardball. But another word for it is the one word that most politicians are loathe to use about their opponents -- a lie."

1. We knew that already. Shame none of the media will ever report it.

But perhaps some hard evidence can be incorporated into an ad later on that will crucify McCain's duplicity.

2. Of course they did...

Obama was going to get attacked no matter what he did. Shameless.
