McCain Web Video: Hayworth 'Among The Dumbest Members Of Congress'

And John McCain, ranked of 894 out of a Naval Academy class of 899, knows his stupid.

elitist!

Sid McCrashcup knows dumb, no doubt about it.

Did anyone else have a flashback to 2008 when watching this? How many outlandish attacking "web ads" did the (cash strapped) McCain camp release? It seemed like their strategy was to release these on the web, create a stir, and let the 24hr news channels run them all day for free.

I guess it worked so well in '08...

I have never heard McCain make an argument that makes any real sense. Let the thing as bricks tear each other apart.

New Dealer Architect FDR stars as the voice of authority/rationality in a McCain campaign ad. Ah, the irony.

Almost dumb enough to be vice president, eh John?

McCain is also "among" the dumbest. What, Hayworth was ranked 410 and McCain is at 408?

Any day I am expecting Sara Palin to announce that Alaska never formely declared War on Japan or Germany in World War 2.

"New Dealer Architect FDR stars as the voice of authority/rationality in a McCain campaign ad."

As they say, politics makes strange bedfellows. What's next, I wonder... Sarah Palin going into business with George Soros?

Are the Teabaggers going to go nuts that McCain did an ad that features FDR?

HaHa.

Next ad by J.D. Hayworth...

"John McCain is a big stupid doodoo head!"

Wow, McCain will be painted as a liberal as a result of this ad. Big mistake, the whole movement is based on ignoring relevant fact and doubling down of factual inaccuracies. Typical conservative response to something like this: "Goddamn liberal media making things up, that's why FOX news is number one! You goddamn liberals think you're so smart....YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING!"

This is the know nothing party after all. I just don't see how this helps with AZ voters.

"The fundamentals of the economy are strong"

It's one of the great mysteries of the universe that god created Arizona, and then filled it with people that are too stupid to appreciate it. That goes double for Utah.

I actually think this could backfire on McCain.

It's that curious reaction that low information voters have when they find themselves being properly shamed. They rally around "the stupid" and defend it, because... they have to. Saying stupid things is something that happens to them all the time. Eventually, these people develop a denial system, like an alcoholic, and they just create their own reality.

(hence: Fox News)

How else can you explain Sheriff Joe Arpaio, or that "papers please" law?

Just because Hayworth actually looks like Howdy Doody (wooden dimples) and says dumb things doesn't mean people in Arizona won't love him. I think the show was very popular there, at that time, and as long as the kids in AZ are laughing at his jokes, and McCain is pontificating from his elitist castle in the land of "facts"...

Yes, I think it's just possible that McCain might have finally found his "bridge too far" (if you will forgive my referencing more obscure American military history that is sure to confuse the TeaParty™ faithful).

Message to McCain: Dumb is the new smart.

J.D. was an incompetent goofball as a sportscaster, too. He has blown the lid off the Peter Principle.

JD needs to give up now, the more he opens his mouth, the more he brings down the Republican party. The once named dumbest member in Congress, continues to express himself and communicate to the voters of Arizona that he is just not capable of the position as a Senator. JD is not just dumb, he is unethical and a blowhard. At this point, JD has completely made a fool of himself and I am even starting to feel sorry for him.
