Ix-nay on the speculation that John McCain will use the ad his campaign is airing tonight to introduce his running mate, or to challenge Obama to town hall meetings again. Or to do anything else, really. “Convention night” is just a kissy-face non sequitur that congratulates Obama on his night in the spotlight.

Is this really the spot that McCainiacs were touting earlier today as “historic” and “very exciting”? Or was something a little worthier of the hype scuttled owing to disagreements and/or unreadiness?

In any case, Paul Schmelzer has posted the video here.
