A DNC ad that needs to run during the RNC Convention...

...or Hurricane Relief Telethon, whichever they settle on. From the WSJ "Among the options under consideration: canceling one day of activities;
transforming the gathering into a giant hurricane relief telethon."

DNC Ad:

Video of McCain and Chris Wallace from tomorrow's Fox News Sunday with the following quote:


"It just wouldn't be appropriate to have a festive occasion while a
near-tragedy or a terrible challenge is presented in the form of a
natural disaster," McCain told Chris Wallace of "Fox News Sunday," in an interview taped for tomorrow.

from politico.com

Still photo of McCain
and Bush on tarmac, cutting birthday cake the day Katrina made
landfall. Include date stamp and text: George W. Bush and John McCain
celebrate McCain's 69th birthday the day Hurricane Katrina devastates
New Orleans.

Appropriately Scathing Voice-over, one suggestion: "John McCain doesn't want to accept his party's nomination while a major natural disaster affects the United States. But where was he during Hurricane Katrina?"

Alright, so I don't make ads for a living, but they someone should run with this quote. At least tivo it tomorrow.

I see where you are coming from, trying to say he is doing this just for political reasons. Obama won't go taht road though, he tries to avoid the personal stuff. Although I think hitting McCain on an entire plethera of subjects should be on the table.
