I just finished watching a new ad on Ben Smith's blog at Politico.com, with the Obama campaign challenging the McCain/Palin campaign on 3 fronts.
-Lobbyists
-Bush
-Palin being before the bridge to nowhere, before she was against it.
More after the fold...
I'll be posting a transcript after the initial post. Overall, its a pretty effective ad, combining "lying" and tying McCain and Palin to Bush yet again.
Hopefully this will satisfy the crowd intent on going negative. I'm impressed. I would love for the whole "lying" meme to get some traction in the TM.

Narrator: They call themselves Mavericks. Whoa. Truth is, they're anything but. John McCain is hardly a Maverick when seven of his top campaign advisers are Washington Lobbyists. He's no maverick when he votes with Bush 90% of the time. And Sarah Palin's no maverick either. She was for the bridge to nowhere before she was against it. Politicians lying about their records? You don't call that maverick. You call it more of the same.
Edit: Wow. This diary made the Rec list, spelling errors and all. Thanks a lot you guys. I really appreciate it.
