Obama's campaign has been innovative on many fronts, from the emphasis on social networking to the targeted district races in primaries to the stadium acceptance speech.

That said, this is the first television ad of Obama's that I have found particularly creative. Many have been entirely too standard political spots.

Pre-Palin, don't forget that the race had changed with the Celebrity ad. Fair or not, that is the ad that people will remember from this election, and since that time McCain has had more control of the framing of the race.
