The new McCain ad, set to air in key states, features footage of Barack Obama in a Senate hearing from January 2007, praising the McCain-Lieberman plan on global warming:
"I want to thank Senator Lieberman, as well as Senator McCain, for the outstanding leadership that they've shown," Obama says.

Emptying out the opposition-research closet, the McCain campaign is up with a new ad featuring one Sen. Barack Obama praising John McCain's approach to global warming.
The spot, titled "Obama Praising McCain," will air in "key states." But it is unlikely to move the dials much, if at all.

Political Malpractice?
The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan —
A new McCain ad:
Mark Kleiman is perplexed: The thrust of the McCain campaign, especially for the past month, has been that Barack Obama is evil and scary: a metrosexual cosmopolitan celebrity who wants to molest your children while his terrorist friends plot to kill you and his homeboy welfare chiselers from ACORN steal elections so they can then steal your money.
