ARLINGTON, Virginia, October 16 /Standard Newswire/ -- Today, McCain-Palin 2008 released its latest television ad, entitled "Fight." The ad highlights John McCain speaking directly to the American people about his bold plan of action to make the next four years better than the last eight. To do that, John McCain will fight to set a new direction by fighting for the American people. He will protect Americans' savings and investments, lower taxes, curb government spending, work toward strategic energy independence and always fight for our country. The ad will be televised nationally. To learn more about John McCain's "Pension and Family Security Plan" and "Jobs for America" economic plan, please see: http://www.johnmccain.com

Script For "Fight" (TV :60)

ANNCR: The last eight years haven't worked very well, have they?

I'll make the next four better.

Your savings, your job and your financial security are under siege.

Washington is making it worse - bankrupting us with their spending.

Telling us paying higher taxes is "patriotic"?

And saying we need to "spread the wealth around"?

They refuse common sense solutions for energy independence.

So every day we send billions to the Middle East.

We need a new direction and I have a plan.

Your savings. We'll rebuild them.

Your investments. They'll grow again.

Energy. We'll drill here and we'll create a renewable energy economy.

Lower taxes and less spending will protect your job and create new ones.

That'll restore our country.

Stand up with me, let's fight for America.

JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approve this message.

I don't see how anyone will be able to lower taxes given the amount of bailout debt the govt is now on the hook for.

“The last eight years haven’t worked very well, have they?”

I think McCain plays into Obama’s anti-Bush rhetoric a little too easily. He could at least add, “I won’t administer this nation as just another Democrat like George W. Bush.”

He’s wrong to disown the last eight years. I wish he’d had THIRTY MORE SECONDS to finish what he started last night, when he began to note that the Dems took charge two years ago.

His voice and inflection are horrible. Some of the words are good, but the delivery leaves something to be desired.

“I don’t see how anyone will be able to lower taxes given the amount of bailout debt the govt is now on the hook for.”

Since when can’t the government run budget deficits? Where have you been?

Very good... I think McCain/Palin need to continue the stand up and fight theme, it was excelent in his acceptance speech and its largely been lost since then. I’m sure he’s said it in his stump speeches, but its not coming across as a theme in his campaign marketing.

Very reassuring. I think this is really needed now. Thanks.

The comments after the video are asking for more details.....guess all those guys can't find the JohnMcCain website but somehow can find Youtube. LOL

Is someone getting “debt” and “deficit” mixed up?

Probably not a FReeper, most know the difference.

You ask the avg person though, and they’ll have no clue.

Great ad...he needs to do more of these along with the attack ones. A balance of the two kinds.

Sarah needs to do some ads. She’s a friendly face, and speaks from the heart.

pretty good! hope it gets plenty of air time. for those who follow politics this is a yawner, but for average joe who catches the news after a long day at work it will hit home. most folks i know catch the news after a eight or twelve hour shift, get bits and pieces and the msm has touted a failing economy the last 8 yrs. that is all they have heard. the base is rallied as it can get. now we need moderates and indys. mccains focus is where it should be on the home stretch.
