That’s McCain, Johm McCain

McCain's new campaign ad features an embarrassing typo.

I may write the occasional typo here and there, but if I were creating ads for a presidential campaign, I’d be careful not to spell the candidate’s name as “Johm McCain” in a televised ad.

Indeed, if I were running a campaign, I’d probably have someone on staff to proofread ad copy to prevent this. But that’s just me.
