mccain and the rnc can get away with this by virtue of hybrid ads. as long as these ads contain a passing mention of a member of congress, they are allowed. thus, the rnc is allowed to create ads for mccain's campaign and not be subjected to the same campaign finance laws that obama is restricted to. combine this with the matching funds that mccain received by accepting public financing and mccain is at little to not financial disadvantage.
