McCain - This AIN'T Your Daddy's Presidential Race

Remember that great Olds campaign when they touted their new and updated cars by saying "This ain't your daddy's Oldsmobile"? Well, McCain, this ain't your daddy's presidential race. It sounds to me like he's getting desperate and losing all of great things that make McCain McCain. (I really liked the 1992 McCain!) Disappointing, to say the least. If Obama is elected, I think we should issue a new dollar with his picture on it just for people like McCain!

Obama says Republicans trying to scare voters
By MIKE GLOVER - Associated Press Writer

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. --Democrat Barack Obama, the first black candidate with a shot at winning the White House, says John McCain and his Republican allies will try to scare them by saying Obama "doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills."

Obama didn't make clear what distinctions McCain was likely to raise regarding the presidents on U.S. currency, men who are white and, for the most part, much older than Obama when they were elected. McCain has not raised Obama's race as an issue in the campaign, though he has said that Obama lacks experience.

Stumping in an economically challenged battleground state, Obama argued Wednesday that President Bush and McCain will resort to scare tactics to maintain their hold on the White House because they have little else to offer voters.

"Nobody thinks that Bush and McCain have a real answer to the challenges we face. So what they're going to try to do is make you scared of me," Obama said. "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."
