JOHN MCCAIN, HORSERACE

For Better or Worse, McCain's Climate Ad Scores

Many of my readers will not greet this news with cheers, but it's worth noting anyway: a moment ago on XM's POTUS08, Glenn Kessler of mediacurves.com, noted that McCain's commercial on global warming had a striking impact among Democrats.

When asked who they they thought had the best plan, 47 percent of Democrats said Obama. (They were given a choice of Obama, McCain, "Another Candidate," or "None.")

"After viewing the video, 37 percent said Obama, the rest had moved to McCain," Kessler said. "This ad really worked. McCain, if he keeps playing this, has a chance to get a lead on this issue."
