Presidential Ads Of The Day

October
1

Here’s two out today so far.

John McCain’s ad features Sarah Palin’s speech at the Republican Convention in which she says, “How are you going to be better off if our opponent adds a massive tax burden to the American economy?”

The ad continues:
ANNCR: Good question.
GOVERNOR PALIN: The Democratic nominee for President supports plans to raise income taxes, and raise payroll taxes, and raise investment income taxes.
How are you going to be better off if our opponent adds a massive tax burden to the American economy?
ANNCR: The answer: we won’t.
JOHN MCCAIN: I’m John McCain and I approve this message.

Obama’s campaign put out its own ad, which claims McCain’s a big spender who wants to privatize social security and give tax breaks for companies that export jobs.

The script:
I’m Barack Obama, and I approve this message.
McCAIN: “I can’t wait to introduce her to the big spenders in Washington…”
VO:Big spenders…like John McCain.
McCain’s tax plan means another three TRILLION in debt.
His plan to privatize Social Security – ANOTHER trillion.
Tax credits sent to insurance companies, yet another trillion.
So as we borrow from China to fund his spending spree, ask yourself.
Can we afford John McCain?
