Moveon.org launched an "emergency" ad against John McCain late last week, trying to paint him as Dr. Strangelove for his silly little joke about Iran. Doesn't the left understand that hyperventilating over McCain like this only endears him to Republican voters? Watch:

The McCain camp responded by swatting Moveon.org's hanging curve:

"It comes as no surprise that America's most liberal interest group would attack John McCain's belief that we cannot allow Iran to destroy Israel," said spokesman Matt David. "After all, MoveOn.org posted ads comparing President Bush to Hitler during the last presidential election."
