New McCain Video Calls Out Media For Obama 'Love'

By The Staff at wowOwow.com

John McCain’s campaign wants people to know that the media is in love. Just not with him. 

Yesterday, they released these videos on YouTube and sent out e-mails to supporters asking them to visit his site and vote on which song best articulates the press’s love for Barack Obama.

The campaign yesterday sent an e-mail out to supporters saying:

"It’s pretty obvious that the media has a bizarre fascination with Barack Obama. Some may even say it’s a love affair. We want you to be the judge. We’ve compiled two videos of the more outrageous moments of this not-so-secret love affair. Follow this link to watch the two videos and vote on which one you think is better. Your vote will determine which video we put on the air.

"The media is in love with Barack Obama. If it wasn’t so serious, it would be funny."

The first video is played to the tune of Frankie Valli’s "Can’t Take My Eyes Off You," the second to Vallie’s "My Eyes Adored You." Both montages include snippets of various newscasters and other media types just exuding praise for the Democratic presidential hopeful. One example is Chris Matthews saying Obama caused a "thrill" to go up his leg. As of 9:30 this morning, video and song #1 has the lead, 86 percent to 14 percent. There has been no official response from the Obama camp.

Suzanne, God’s grace upon you and your family, His strength is sufficient for each of you, and together your family will move through this unbelievable loss. Certain events require tiny increments of moving, putting one foot in front of the other and taking the next step. Your family is in a protective bubble, going through the motions, being the strength for the others at a moment, and then seeking solace in their embrace at the next. If there is a time to discover why this has happened, it need not be now. Take care of your hearts with the knowledge that we, across the country, offer our strength. God bless you, Suzanne. Peace and grace Peace and grace

Winery Lifestyle, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Because this is such a public place I won’t go into details, but I can tell you I have experience with suicide. I wish I could communicate with you about this because I know what you and your family are going through, the shock, guilt, shame… the “what ifs”, the “what was he thinking?!”. And I know your brother Mark was a good guy, because most often it IS the good guys, the ones you’d never expect it from, who do this, who cannot deal with it when things suddenly seem overwhelming. God I wish there was a way I could talk to you. All I can say is there are a lot of us out here, perfectly normal people living perfectly normal lives, who are survivors of the suicide of a family member. It is far more common than you think and it says more about the particular pain and coping mechanism of the individual than it does about anyone else in his life or in his family. I can tell you this, it will pass and as much as it seems like it now, in the long run, THIS will NOT be his legacy, he will be remembered for all the good things he was and had in his life. I’ve lived through this and with this for 10 years this coming November 24th, and I DO know what you’re going through, what’s ahead and that there IS a light at the end of this tunnel.

Suzanne- I can’t even see the screen through the tears… I am so sorry that your brother was so depressed to do this. I am so sorry that this has happened to you and your family. I wish I could take you up in my arms and just hold you. Please please know we are here and praying for your family. Your mother will really need you all right now. I’m sending so much love out to you! Dabney and Bonnie- thanks for the heads up on one of our own being in trouble. It brings many things into perspective.

I am sorry to hear this news, too. It sort of popped into the thread…I was pursuing another subject. How horrible for you and your family.

Suzanne, so sorry to hear your terrible news. I hope you and your family can find some solace in each other.

Suzanne: I feel like Franklin Pierce when he wrote to Lincoln upon the death of his son Willie and said: “I realize fully how vain it would be to suggest sources of consolation.” But I do want to tell you that many hearts go out to you and pray your family gets through this bonded and sanely. The whirlwind of emotions you will be experiencing are valid and should be respected…even the anger. Try to be kind to yourself, you will need all the strength you can muster. May the Universe watch over you and yours at this time.

Oh, Suzanne, I’m so very sorry that you’ve lost Mark. There aren’t really comforting words that can help, but know that you are in the thoughts of many of us here. I hope your mom will be alright…she’s going to need your support and love, even when you feel drained. It’s a terrible thing to lose a brother and horrifying to lose a child. My sympathy to your whole family. God bless. Maurine.
