Moveon/AFSCME anti-McCain "Daisy" style ad


I didn't see this on the main page, so I'm posting it here. Moveon and AFSCME have partnered (not a verb, I know) to create an effective, emotional (-ly manipulative?) Anti McCain ad, featuring a young mother holding her infant son. CBS News has more:
The 30 second spot features a young mother holding her toddler son, Alex . She explains his talent for trying new food, chasing their dog and pulling on her heart strings. In a dramatic turn, the mother asks, " So, John McCain, when you said you would stay in Iraq for 100 years, were you counting on Alex? " She looks at her child and says "Because if you were, you can’t have him."
See the ad here
The ad buy totaled $540,000 and was split "roughly evenly" between AFSME and MoveOn.org. The ad will start airing Wednesday on CNN, MSNBC, Washington, DC broadcasts as well as in select television markets in Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin
