In a tempest-in-a-teapot political scandalette, Republican Presidential candidate Sen. John McCain used images of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears in a television ad attacking his Democratic opponent, Sen. Barack Obama, as a celebrity.
It was tasteless and also offensive to Hilton and Spears, which seems an almost impossible task–way to go!
