New McCain ad: J.D. Hayworth, Birther
Hot Air ^ | February 24, 2010 | Allahpundit

I figured his spokesmen would keep hammering the Birther thing, but a full-blown ad replete with cameo by Orly Taitz? Quoth Ron Burgundy: “Boy, that escalated quickly. I mean, that really got out of hand fast.”

My feelings about Birtherism are well known and, needless to say, this is an efficient way of marginalizing Hayworth with undecided centrists who might otherwise be weary of decades of maverickiness. (Geraghty was moved this morning to note Hayworth’s willingness to make chitchat with the John Birch Society.)

But I hope McCain’s prepared to explain why he’s ready to go bareknuckle on Hayworth by linking him to Taitz when he refused to go bareknuckle on The One by linking him to Rev. Wright.

The single biggest knock on his campaign among grassroots righties was that he pulled his punches against Obama after years of “straight talk” about Republicans and conservatives.

I guess he figures, a la Romney, he doesn’t have a prayer with grassroots righties anyway and can afford to shrug off their irritation over the double standard, but he’s going to be asked about it. Wonder what the explanation will be..

That tears it for me. McCain and Romney now both resemble "Afterbirthers!" (If you catch my drift)

" That ad is absolutely disgusting! McCain is trying to portray people who hold the “birther” view as lunatics. "

All John McCain is doing is to show how successful he is campaigning as a liberal...

JD should just come out and loudly state that JOHN MCCAIN IS A LIBERAL PERIOD !! no need to label him a RINO when his true liberal colors show.

No, no, no! The ad was AWESOME!!! McLame just gave the Constitutional crises a huge advertisement. He doesn’t realize that this issue breaks against him, not for him. As more people are becoming aware of the issue, the more they are demanding the public release of O’s bona fides. Both O and McLame are going down....

Obama was born to a Kenyan father. Therefore, he is not a “NATURAL BORN” citizen and is ineligible for the POTUS.

That is NOT lunatic fringe material, amigo. That’s just the Constitution.

McCain obviously has become tone-deaf in Washington, along with the rest of them. This issue breaks AGAINST him, not for him. He will soon be replaced.
