Week of September 7, 2008 - September 13, 2008

My Name is Barack Obama and I Approved this Message


But the speaker is John McCain.

That's the ad - John McCain saying these words - with his mouth moving like that baby on the etrade commercials.
And Barack Obama's voice coming through.

VOICEOVER:
Saying something - doesn't make it true.
John McCain will say whatever words are put in his mouth by a skilled team of political operatives. From the people who brought you eight years of Bush-Cheney."

Because in trying to eclipse Obama's true change message, McCain MUST be exposed for who he is.

The next frame in the commercial: that clip of John McCain in the capitol proudly stating that he supported President Bush 90% of the time.

Next frame - the Bush/McCain hug

VOICEOVER:
Republicans are good at campaigning - they are just bad at governing.

Then over the Bush-McCain photo a series of one liners-
WHAT MATTERS?
The Economy -------
Your Job Loss ------

Education for your children ----------
Affording College ----

Quality Health Care that is affordable--

Declining US Dollar---
Our standing in the world---

And the ad ends with Barack Obama staring into the camera and the LARGE words on the screen---

ENOUGH

As Obama says:

"I am Barack Obama and I approved this ad because for 20 months we have been having a conversation with the American people about changing the way this country is governed. The American people will not be fooled - again. We have had enough."
