McCain attack ad shows Obama with troops

Karl Rove, he’s not. Whoever is in charge of McCain’s negative ad strategery: If you want to attack Obama for not visiting the troops, it’s probably not a great idea to use images of … Obama visiting the troops.

You can see in the YouTube video (~15 secs. in), that’s Obama shooting hoops with the troops in Kuwait.

    However ineptly McCain pushes the issue, both campaigns know Obama’s vulnerable on the topic. Both sides also know how important it is to McCain to lodge the impression of an uncaring Obama in voters’ minds. Witness Obama’s varied explanations. As soon as one fails, the next is brought out.
