To be Fair

Barack Obama has gone too far with his latest Spanish-language ad called "Dos Caras" (Two Faces). The ad claims that John McCain is friends with Rush Limbaugh. The ad flashes a picture of the radio host along with two quotes

"...stupid and unskilled" - Rush Limbaugh

"You Shut your mouth or you get out!" - Rush Limbaugh

Rush Limbaugh is in fact a critic of McCain's view on immigration. PolitiFact and FactCheck.org go over the ad in detail.



Why must all this mudslinging take place in this year's election? Of all the candidates, I thought McCain and Obama would be the last ones to run a smear campaign. Hopefully the two presidential candidates will realize that the American people expect more out of their future president.
