The campaign has just released a new TV ad and we wanted you to be the first to watch it.
We agree that Senator Barack Obama may be the "biggest celebrity in the world." But as you and I know, simply attracting large crowds of fans with empty rhetoric doesn't prepare a person to lead a country. The more we get to know the real Barack Obama, the more he shows that he is not ready to lead our country.
Gas prices are at an all-time high, and Senator Obama has become the "Dr. No" of energy. He says no to off-shore drilling, resulting in an increase in our dependence on foreign oil. In fact, his solution to our energy challenge is to raise taxes on electricity. Hard-working Americans can't afford Senator Obama's energy policies in the White House.
You and I know that our country is faced with great challenges and Americans need to elect a true leader as our next president, a leader who puts country first. That leader is John McCain.
Throughout his entire life, John McCain has put his country first. Often called a "maverick" because he believes in solving problems with real solutions, he's prepared to lead our country in a new direction and he needs our help to get elected this fall.
