It's weird that this hasn't occurred to me before, but Obama could totally turn the whole he's-weird-and-foreign thing on its head by turning it into the Superman narrative: alien boy with unworldly (political) powers ends up in the care of two unassuming Kansans, and grows up to use his powers to fight against the forces of evil. Looking at this ad, how can you not see his grandparents as Ma and Pa Kent?

John McCain = Lex Luthor?
I don't think McCain is smart enough to be Lex Luthor.
I think someone on a blog somewhere mentioned that McCain is Colonel Tigh, which I think is kind of scarily accurate.
