John McCain's campaign clearly has a head start in November's general election, but the Republicans are already looking ahead to McCain's re-election in 2013.

This new ad, just released, imagines that we're in 2013, four years into a McCain presidency.

Wow. That seems scary. I hope it doesn't look like George Bush's first four years.

The McCain campaign is getting a bit cocky since they have already snabbed their party's nomination, but I think a campaign running this long will definitely be good for the Democrats. Imagine how much more free media both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are getting over John McCain.

Maybe we should combine all of that free publicity and team up Clinton and Obama in the end.
