Maureen Dowd has written an intelligent Op-Ed piece on McCain being green with envy of Obama--explains a lot about his "childish" ads of late. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/06/opinion/06dowd.html?_r=1&em&oref=slogin
Here's an excerpt:
"Now John McCain is pea-green with envy. That’s the only explanation for why a man who prides himself on honor, a man who vowed not to take the low road in the campaign, having been mugged by W. and Rove in South Carolina in 2000, is engaging in a festival of juvenilia.
The Arizona senator who built his reputation on being a brave proponent of big solutions is running a schoolyard campaign about tire gauges and Paris Hilton, childishly accusing his opponent of being too serious, too popular and not patriotic enough.
Even his own mother, the magical 96-year-old Roberta McCain, let slip that she thought the Paris Hilton-Britney Spears ad was 'kinda stupid.'”
