McCain campaign contributor Kathy Hilton rips the ad as a waste of time and money in a blog in the Huffington Post. "It is a complete waste of the money John McCain's contributors have donated," she writes. "It is a complete waste of the country's time and attention when millions are losing their homes and jobs. And it is a completely frivolous way to choose the next president of the United States." Read These Next President asks nation's top generals to loosen up.
