In response to the accusation that Obama supported the actions of Bill Ayers, founder of the American terrorist group Weather Underground Organization, the Obama campaign released this 30-second spot. In the ad, the Obama camp accuses McCain of misrepresenting Obama's relationship with Ayers, stating, "McCain knows Obama denounced Ayers's crimes." The narrator questions why McCain is focusing on events that took place in the 1960s, when Obama was only 8 years old, when there are so many problems plaguing American families today. To drill that point home, he lists the policies McCain supports that will make these problems worse, such as giving tax breaks to companies shipping jobs overseas. The final message, "John McCain. Just more of the same." links McCain to President Bush, a common strategy of the Obama campaign. This response highlights the Obama campaign's refusal to be swift-boated.

All I'd ask is for them to add a little red carrot ^ between the "S" and "a" in the last word, and insert an "h".
More of the s(h)ame.
The audio drops out about 20 seconds in.
I'd love to hear the rest of this great response to the McCain smear.
Now we're talkin'!! Good response Obama - keep 'em comin'. I supposes mccains excuse will be that he was a pow and is hopelessly stuck in the 60's.
Expose the phony fly boy.
Great Ad! Mc Cain's lies keep coming and the truth must be said.
Far worse than casually meeting Ayers at an informal party is for ANYONE to have cast 2 votes for George W. Bush.
