Does it help McCain's campaign to pay Obama supporters to campaign for him? I think not. This article from The Times in London details the differences between the Obama campaign and McCain campaign.

I know that Obama has less experience on the national and international stage than McCain. But looking at the organization which Obama has built for his campaign gives me great hope that he can run the government in much the same way. That's about 180 degress apart from the cluelessness we have now and that's what we need for the next four years.
