So it ends up the McCain girls were a comedic hoax all along! This news article has some pretty good quotes about it, I think the most telling one is:
"That video recorded more than 1.6 million views and earned mentions on CNN and on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” with people alternately mocking it and wondering who was responsible. The singers seemed intentionally bad, which led many bloggers and YouTube commenters to assume that it was meant to insult Mr. McCain. The liberal blog Eschaton put it this way: “I believe the YouTube era begins the age when it is impossible to tell parody/irony/performance art from completely sincere product."
Apparently it was created to mock the candidate video phenomena, they did a good job making it look home made. I love the fact that they went to the lengths to do a response to the haters video too.
