Walter Reed Middle School

Apparently the same school was used as the backdrop in The West Wing for candidate Matt Santos, a character whose story many have noted bearing some similarity to that of Barack Obama's political rise.
If this, rather than a Google Image Search mistake, was the reason for the choice of background, in the hopes of somehow evoking that story for McCain, it remains clumsy and poorly thought out, but also betrays McCain's deep desire to be in Obama's position right now.
