4. He's relating to the folks who are voting for him...folks who can't spell
and ignorate enough to vote for him. (Spell it like it sounds ;) )

5. EPIC FAIL
Too bad most of McFail's supporters flunked 3rd grade spelling or are outright illiterate!

8. This is what makes me wonder
How many people looked at that ad before it was sent out in it's final form? I can see if somebody was quickly typing a memo and misspelled a word in haste or something like that. Everybody does it. Everybody makes mistakes with grammar. I'm a published writer and I do it constantly, in emails and DU posts etc. It's just haste, you know? Or a typo.

But to sit there and put together an ad, have several campaign bigwigs look at it, maybe even probably McCain, maybe Palin and send it out like that? That's just being stupid. I went to video school, when you edit together a project, you do it meticulously. A short commercial like this? The person who put it together and the editor or staff or whomever sat in on it had to watch it maybe 100 times. And none of them caught that?

That's just being Sling Blade dumb.

13. I agree, but not only that
but the fact that even though JM gives his "I approved of this ad" bit, it's obvious he doesn't watch his own commercials. If I'm going to put my name on something for the entire world to look at and dissect (or is that a violation of McCain's first amendment rights?), I'm going to make sure it's at least spelled correctly.

15. I am about 75 percent sure he doesn't see them
He delegates authority so much that I think they just tell him what they are going to do, do it, and tell him it's done. He seems to not know much about his ads either. When he's asked about them, it's like he can't really explain too much about it.

11. it's inexcusable, and yes, there are other misspellings. I posted about one of them
This would not happen in the Obama Campaign. Too ridiculous to even make me laugh

17. Okay, okay, okay! Ha Ha Ha! Very funny…
you forgot "The Onion" header. Right? Haha…oh crap, more of my brain has melted. It's starting to look like the Arctic in there. Can the Republican party be held responsible for a new form of brain damage? Could it be possible to charge these people with a class action lawsuit for viral stupidity?
Good God.

19. Freepers can't spell ...... why would that ever change?
But you'd think .... just think ..... the McCain campaign would be a little further up on the educational totem pole. That's spelled 'totum' to any lurking freepers. Anyway here's a screen shot from another McCain ad ..... and a 5th REC.



Everbody Exagerrate Sumtimes ..... (freeper response to this thread)

20. If it weren't so pathetically sad, it might even be funny....
I am starting to believe that there are many in the McSame/barracuda campaign who are trying to lose.
