Sen. John McCain Congratulates Sen. Barack Obama on his Nomination, Well Done McCain

Proving he is a class act yet again, Republican John McCain ran an ad on national television that congratulated Obama last week. Before Barack Obama gave his acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention, John McCain congratulated Obama for being the first black man to be nominated by one of the two major party. The much-hyped John McCain TV ad aired the night of Barack Obama's acceptance speech is unprecedented only in the sense that it congratulates Democratic rival Barack Obama instead of attacking him.









Presidential and very classy is how people have describe the advertisement featuring McCain.

In a brief break from a fierce advertising war, Republican presidential candidate John McCain aired a one-evening-only ad with a simple message for Barack Obama: "Job well done."

"Senator Obama, this is truly a good day for America," McCain says. "Too often the achievements of our opponents go unnoticed. So I wanted to stop and say, congratulations.

"How perfect that your nomination would come on this historic day," the presumptive Republican nominee says, referring to the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" address in Washington. "Tomorrow, we'll be back at it. But tonight senator, job well done."

The 30-second spot, which was air on national cable TV before, during, and after Obama's acceptance speech tonight from Denver, is a marked departure from the withering series of ads McCain and Republicans have been running to question Obama's readiness to be president.


As McCain concedes, this won't last.

Both candidates have been running a series of ads criticizing each other, vastly outnumbering any positive ads about themselves. But this is the first positive ad of the election by one candidate about the other.
