This week John McCain's campaign hit new lows with their attacks and distortions.
And all too often, the so-called "referees" in the news media are spending a lot of time repeating his false attacks and very little time holding him accountable.
Watch the video of Barack taking these attacks head on at an event in Indiana and help spread the truth about John McCain.
• Just last week, McCain and his party attacked Barack Obama and ridiculed the idea that keeping your car tires inflated is an effective way to improve fuel efficiency and keep down the cost of gasoline. The thing is, everyone from AAA to NASCAR agreed with Barack. McCain finally had to face reality this week and reverse his position. But the media had a good laugh about McCain's petty, misguided stunt and ignored his effort to distort the truth to win a few cheap political points.
• Earlier this week, the McCain campaign put out an ad saying that Washington is broken. It's gotten a lot of press so far, but it didn't mention that John McCain spent the last 26 years in Washington -- failing to fix this broken system. He portrays himself as a so-called "maverick" but doesn't want people to know that he has voted 95% of the time in support of George Bush's policies.
• Another ad uses scare tactics to claim Barack's tax policy will hurt middle class Americans. Press coverage of the ad repeated McCain's smears, but omitted the fact that Barack's economic plan will cut taxes for 95% of American families. Not to mention that McCain's upper class tax cut plan leaves out more than 100 million middle class families.

im shocked how can someone that stupid even has a shot at becoming a president lol
I guess you're from Bulgaria so I have to forgive your english, but it's always funny to see someone call Obama stupid with a bunch of grammatical errors. Turns into a pot calling the kettle type of thing. Plus, I have a hard time seeing Obama as stupid - he'd be the smartest president in my lifetime. The guy grew up poor, sometimes having to survive off food stamps, but was still able to learn and work hard enough to get into Harvard and become a law professor. Stupid people don't achieve that.

Given how your post pretty much aims at McCain being stupid, I'm almost positive that Spitfiree is calling him stupid, but not Obama...
But then again - I might be reading wrong in to the Bulgarian english
