Apocalyptic campaigning

Arguably McCain's most effective advertisement to date. Going beyond even Obama's soaring rhetoric of change, fixing the schools, reducing tax burdens on the middle class, enacting a policy of robust diplomacy.... McCain entirely skips any discussion of what he wants to do (i.e. cut taxes such that 33% of the federal budget must be cut, bomb Iran, stay in Iraq, etc) and just gives us pretty visuals. If only so many people weren't so dumb.

it is also a relatively effective appeal to the "evil robot from the future" demographic
