Democrats and Independents thought the ad helped Hilton's image (Republicans were divided). Independents thought the ad hurt McCain while Democrats and Republicans thought the Hilton ad helped their candidate. So... we now have some measurement of the current state of weirdness.

(Sorry, someone had to go for the easy joke. I leave the clever humor to professionals like Darrin) The Paris-McCain alliance makes sense to me.
