Normally I wouldn't use NYDailyNews as a source, but for the personality angle, they do just fine.

Paris Hilton drove her sharpened stiletto heels into John McCain Tuesday, releasing a mock political ad that cast the Republican hopeful "as the oldest celebrity in the world."

"Hey, America, I am Paris Hilton and I am a celebrity, too," says Hilton, dressed in an over-the-top, skimpy leopard-print swimsuit. "Only I am not from the olden days and I am not promising change like that other guy. I am just hot."

The spot, produced days after McCain used images of Hilton in his own ad to comparing Democrat Barack Obama with bubble-headed celebrities, was posted late Tuesday afternoon on the celebrity web-site TMZ.

It begins with a narrator intoning that McCain is "like, super old. Old enough to remember when dancing was a sin and beer was served in a bucket." Images of Larry King, "Star Wars" Yoda and the "Golden Girls" flash on screen.

"But is he ready to lead?" asked the narrator, stealing a line from McCain's own hit on Obama.
