When a candidate says things like "we are the ones we have been waiting for," stages a campaign rally before 200,000 Germans ineligible to vote but hoping to touch his garment, and proclaiming himself a "citizen of the world," his critics may be forgiven for suggesting, as some have said of Paris Hilton, that he is famous for being famous.

McCain's camp has blasphemed against The One by noting his celebrity status in a campaign commercial that includes Mademoiselles Spears and Hilton. McCain's ad asks the obvious question: Is the man who sends tingles up and down the legs of MSNBC's Chris Matthews ready to lead? We think not.

The Obama camp has gone bonkers at the suggestion that he's an elitist in an empty Armani suit who can take time to shoot three-pointers but is too busy to visit vets in a German hospital.

They object to the statement of McCain's campaign manager, Rick Davis, that "only celebrities like Obama go to the gym three times a day, demand 'Met-Rx chocolate roasted-peanut protein bars and bottles of a hard-to-find organic brew — Black Forest Berry Honest Tea' and worry about the price of arugula."
