“DavidN” and “SAF”,

Both your points have validity. I think it could influence “undecideds” either way, though, depending on that individual.

Firstly, let me say that the Cole-screed-approach is only “singing to the choir.” No effect on the O’bots.

Personally, I find the hyperbole-analogy (argumentum ad Hitle…err…bin Ladenum) so obvious and silly that it is more likely to be off-turning (i.e. against Obama, towards McCain); that is not to say that some “dim bulbs” out there – those searching for a “reason [sic]” to support Zerobama – who might think, “wow! that’s an awesome comparison! I never thought of that, dude!”, but much less likely in my opinion.
