So McCain is a politician...
Obama's big differences are that A) he has more charisma (making him more dangerous), B) he opposes most of Bush's policies (which according to the approval ratings is a good thing to do) and C) there are probably some people who will vote for him just because of race (of course this plays against him too)
Doesn't anyone else think he is a little TOO "perfect?"

I just think McCain's doublethink is a little bit egregious, considering what policies he actually represents.

I think that you have to look at it differently... the words can mean almost anything for example: You can bring PEACE to Iraq while fighting a war. I think for his supporters this might be understood.
Prosperity and Reform are relative to what you think of his policies. Moreover, the word reform does not have a "quantity". These ads are really common in politics since he is giving you a bunch of great words that can mean almost anything or improve his image. Obama's campaign is based on "CHANGE" which can mean many things to many people if you just give them that one word and a bunch of images. In addition both "reform" and "change" are playing the "I am not BUSH, YOU will LOVE me" card. You got to give McCain some credit in not basing his entire campaign on it.
