In the 2008 elections presidential candidates seem to attack each other. For example starting out with Obama and Clinton, now it is between McCain and Obama who insult each other especially through their presidential ads.
In the last Presidential ads coming form John McCain he has planted the idea that Obama doesn’t have enough experience to become the president. He has also mentions that, “the bottom lines is that Sen. Obama’s words, for all their eloquence and passion, don’t mean all that much.” Senator McCain has not only insulted Obama politically but has also insulted him personally. He has stated that, “Celebrities like to spend their million. Barack Obama is no difference. Only it’s your money he wants to spend.” Senator McCain has aired about 13,000 anti-Obama ads and only 302 don’t mention Obama which means that the other 12,698 do mention him or have a hidden message against his campaign. There are people who are willing to support Obama even through messages against him, and those people are mostly young voter and blacks and also are found among women.
McCain is not the only throwing punches because Obama is ready for the fight. Senator Barack Obama has aired 10,000 and 9,000 ads are against Senator John McCain. Obama’s latest ad criticizes McCain’s economic plans. Obamas has mention that McCain is just another Bush because he has similar ideas like Bush towards the economy. That’s why Obama question the people in America “Can we really afford more of the same?” Obama has also question McCain’s pride towards the country challenging him to stop the war. Yet McCain had many supports among whites, men, republicans and evangelicals.
It seems to me like the Presidential Election of 2008 is very interesting especially because the attacks seem to be very candid. Well I don’t really know if we expect maturity from the candidates, but they seem to be concentrated on who can come up with better comebacks and not as much on how they can really help the country.
