This video from the McCain campaign has been viewed over two million times. The likes and dislikes are relatively even. I like it. When it came out in 2008, people didn't know what to make of it. It struck me as an obvious attempt to preempt what Republican operatives perceived to be candidate Obama's strengths from the perspective of their base -- his potential star power. That also accounts for the persistent effort to denigrate and minimize his achievements in office, lest the gilt by association crowd be swayed.
