Obama Tries to Make "Paris Hilton" Ad About... Race!


"You know, he's not patriotic enough, he's got a funny name, you know, he doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills."

Obama often makes references to his distinctions as a candidate, such as saying there are doubts among some voters because he has "a funny name." At times he refers to his race as well, saying he looks different that any previous candidate but then adding that the differences are not just about race. Addressing supporters Tuesday night at a fundraiser in Springfield, he said, "It's a leap, electing a 46-year-old black guy named Barack Obama."


Full article.

Simply weird. There is nothing in the ad about "race", "patriotism", etc, etc ... the Obama camp seems to be spewing talking points that were written 6 months ago.
