McCain-Palin stay on offense in new ad (FANTASTIC new McCain ad)

More crocodile tears, more putting Obama on the defensive, more “empty words” rhetoric.

Latest TV spot says of Palin: “As Obama drops in the polls, he’ll try to destroy her. Obama’s ‘politics of hope’? Empty words.” Watch it above. Read script here.

Really, really good, hard-hitting ad from the McCain campaign against Barack Obama. Watch it and send the link to friends. Just fantastic visual imagery, often similar to Reagan's 1984 "Bear in the Woods" election ad.

Too bad we can’t get this one on National TV. Maybe Fox would allow it?

[Nachum]

I said it before. I think he is going to have a psychotic break before the election. He will become completely unglued in public for all to see....

I will say it for the third time in a third thread: that ad may be the best one yet. The McCain ad people deserve a great big bonus after McCain wins the election.

I liked it.

This is already running. You can see it on YouTube. I don't have a link, but it was posted earlier.

Too bad we can’t get this one on National TV.

I was in the bank this morning, and MSNBC ran the commercial and then had talking heads chattering about it. I couldn't not hear all the words, but I got the gist simply from the pictures and text.

Excellent ad!!

Click this Time.com link up top. It’ll take you to the Youtube ad. It’s fantastic.

As Obama drops in the polls, he’ll try to destroy her

So true. Great ad!

I’ll have to digest this. It seems a little cocky, maybe arrogant to me. I appreciate the “tweak” value. I’m not saying it is untrue. It’s just that sometimes, you want your opponent to come to a conclusion via their own thinking vs. telling them what to think.

I love the McCain Camp...they are great. I can't wait to find out who is behind all this. :)

Way to go John!!

That's not the 0be I've known for the last 20 months.

Throw 0be under the bus.

McCain has got the tanks rolling!

[Cicero]

No question. I think McCain turned himself around and turned his campaign around even before he announced that he had chosen Sarah Palin.

I’m thinking, hoping, and praying that after many years of trying to cozy up to the press, he has finally found himself.

Not the egostist maverick McCain but the maverick McCain who will REALLY buck the establishment—Democrats as well as corrupt Republicans—for the good of our country.

What he said at the convention about his POW experience and what it taught him.

Did anyone notice the "More crocodile tears, more putting Obama on the defensive, more “empty words” rhetoric." line just under the graphic? WTF?

[Gunder]

Typical Mark Halperin. How dare anyone put The Chosen One on the defensive???

New McCain Video

By the way... has anyone noticed the header for Obama website has both guys in the ticket looking to the side while both McCain and Palin are looking straight at you? Like my dad always says... never trust a man who won't look at you in the eyes...

"McCain has got the tanks rolling!"

Yea but Fox news is giving them a pass on 'Lipstick on a pig'....lame. Saying "everybody says it"...blah blah blah. Not everyone says it to the Pitbull with lipstick!
