Obama video is sketchy

Excuse me! I just recovered from an epileptic seizure after watching that Obama video on McCain's site. What's with the flashing lights? Is it intended to obscure the lack of content? Not nearly as slick and professional as the Keating 5 video on Obama's site.

'spread the word' section

I really dislike the "spread the word" section in which they provide a list of blogs and ecourage users to visit and post comments about the daily "talking points." Feels like they are encouraging blog spam.

Better fonts

McCain's fonts were larger and more readable [than Obama's] but I'd have preferred a non-serif font like Verdana or Tahoma.

Why the need for customized pages?

The site seems clean in terms of the basic layout, but the grey box asking to customize the site is really distracting. Why do they need to have different versions of the sites when the message the candidate has should be universal to all people. Maybe it is just a way to poll people as to their "voting intentions" to get a demographic of their viewers. Still takes up too much space that should be used for a message instead.
