New Obama ad questions McCain honor
Posted September 15, 2008 5:05 AM
The Swamp

by John McCormick

Sen. Barack Obama's campaign is expected to roll out a new ad Monday that suggests Sen. John McCain is running a dishonorable campaign.

"I will not take the low road to the highest office in this land," the ad quotes McCain as saying, before listing numerous quotes from recent media reports about the Arizona Republican's recent campaign tactics.

"Exposed as a lie," one reads. "The truth be damned," adds another.

"What happened to John McCain?" an announcer asks, according to an advance copy of the script.

Later the announcer adds: "It seems 'deception' is all he's got left."

3. Re: Wow
I think it is a great ad! It uses the comments that the media made and cuts into his honor which McCain has so often boasted about!

5. Wow... that's EXACTLY what I've wanted Obama to do...
redefine McCain.... now all he needs to do is get Biden to stop saying that Mccain is a "man of integrity" at every opportunity. He's NOT- anymore. And THAT is the message.

Great ad! K&R!

10. Bingo!
I didn't want them to wait this long to get tough but it's better late than never. Hopefully they can keep this up for the remaining 50 days--REGARDLESS of what the polls say. I don't want them to get all soft again if they re-open a 5 point lead in the polls. This ad is a good move in the right direction.

6. Kudos to Obama, Axelrod, Plouffe, et al
That is exactly what we need. And it's a meme that needs to continue until November 4.

7. Ding, Ding, Ding... WE HAVE A WINNER!!!
This ad hits the nail on the head! It should be repeated over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over, until the brainwashed have been reprogrammed.

8. LOVE the ad! I hope the McCain camp won't respond by
making an ad where Obama and Biden repeatedly said what an honorable person he is.

9. "What has happened to John McCain?"
"Seems he would rather lose his honor than lose this election. It's sad, really."

15. Yep - they nullify the counterspin that Dems think he's honorable
by framing it as something that has happened to change that. Great move.

11. Buchanan is now saying that "it's still not enough"
that BO needs to back this up with all the instances which even he admits are lies...sort of.

Nazi shithead.

14. It's time for uppercuts, the "rope-a-dope" is not effective enough.
This is a start in the quest to get through the thicker skulls. Play this and other anti-McCain ads during Monday night football, NASCAR, wherever there'll be an audience that might need to hear this type of thing from the Obama campaign. I also like his commercial that addresses that he will not let us be "ripped off" by big banking and big oil any longer. Simple, and to the point. It's obviously what works for the undecided. The higher minded are already firmly in his corner, so it's time to bitch slap McComa. HARD.

31. Attack his honor, attack his support for the troops, attack his patriotism.
Attack what people view as his strengths.
