Remember when John McCain showed up to Michigan, the original capitol of the auto industry whose unemployment rate hit 7.6 percent last December in part due to a loss of 25,000 manufacturing jobs? Remember how bad a place it was to go advocate more free trade?
Well, he's doing it again. Just as the McCain camp is Taking Great Umbrage that Obama would inject race into the debate, he has a speaking appearance with the Urban League.
D'oh.
Speaking of which, getting into the actual race discussion, I really don't find this McCain ad to be racist due to the sheer presence of white women. The difference between this ad and the anti-Harold Ford ad is that the Harold Ford ad intimates the prospect of a relationship with a white woman, and so could play to certain racist fears. I don't think you can stretch the McCain ad to implying the same with Barack Obama and Paris Hilton.
