It certainly is cutting-edge satire and funny at that. The perceived problem from the standpoint of the Sen. Obama's campaign is that many don't get the joke (or any kind of cutting-edge satire) and already believe it to be true. The typical New Yorker audience certainly got it.

There would be howls from the other side too, when/if the cover of Sen. McCain sitting on a bedpan in an old folks' home appears. Give me a break, Bomelia. When it comes to these types of occurrences in a Presidential campaign, neither side has a sense of humor.
