McCain Ad: Palin’s Reform Credentials Exceed Obama’s

The McCain campaign has released a new ad titled “Alaska Maverick” that favorably compares Sarah Palin’s reform credentials to Barack Obama’s.

“The Journal says: ‘Governor Palin's credentials as an agent of reform exceed Barack Obama's,’” an announcer says in the spot. “They're right. She ‘has a record of bi-partisan reform.’ He's the Senate's ‘most liberal. She ‘took on the oil producers.’ He gave big oil billions in subsidies and giveaways. She's ‘earned a reputation as a reformer.’ His reputation? Empty words.”



The McCain campaign did not provide information on how often the spot will run or specifics on where it will air, saying only that it will appear "in key states."

An Agent of Reform is what Sarah Palin represents!

For example, when in the White House, she will be the Voice of God. God wants us to be in Iraq. God wants us to drill. Her church, Assemblies of God Church believes in mixing Church and State and believes that the President is a representative (the voice) of God, they want to overturn Democracy and replace it with a Theocacy.

Of course, this means Their God, not Your God.
Sara Palin says God wants the Iraq war, and God wants to drill, baby drill.

Is this the Change you are envisioning? If so, Vote McInsane

McCain is willing to sink the ship to avoid admitting the Earmark Queen is not a reformer.

vetforobama,
Does anybody still watch MTV? I guess Obama doesn''t play the saxophone. Being able to adjust for windage and elevation might be better qualifications than being a sax man anyway.

I see you''re a fellow veteran; don''t forget to vote, brother.

McSame is going to wish he vetted her.

In a February interview with MTV, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin lavished praise on maverick Republican presidential contender Ron Paul.

She had a few nice things to say about another GOP candidate, Mitt Romney. But Palin made no mention of John McCain.

By the way she showed better judgement than McCain did supporting her. Ron Paul is 10 times the man McShame ever will be.

[Quote by curious2008]: Did Sarah Palin really breast fed her baby while drinking a margarita????
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
curious2008,
Don''t be absurd. Of course she did no such thing. However, I did hear that she gave birth to one of her children on a fast moving dog sled while cracking away at a caribou with a high powered rifle. Bet Obama can%u2019t do that. Don%u2019t forget to vote.

Question:
Why doesn''t Palin hold her own baby? It appears one of the girls is always holding the baby. She can''t even run her own house hold less the country.

When The Democrats win this year%u2019s elections, Republicans like bswalker1 will not have to move all the way to France to get away from the US, they will be able to move Alaska!

Compare the two ads: Obama''s is straight-forward and true--McCain would outlaw abortion given the chance. McCain''s ad uses opinion, distortion and outright lies to try to smear Obama as less than he is. The character of the campaigns reflects the character of the candidates.

biden''''s looking forward to that 5th of dewars around 8 am, then another 5th of dewars around 3 pm, then another 5th of dewars around 8pm and so and so on.

i wonder if he knows about the 12 steps of AA!!!!!

when he gets honest with himself and looks back over his past he''''ll see all those mistakes and make amends properly, but how can he when all those babies are dead from his legislation, so the catch22 continues and he remains a drunk.

obamas surrogates are reeling.

after the RNC we''ll watch his #''s sink down below 40% as America learns about obamas smear tactics like they did on Hill-arious Clinton.

America is learning about you obama and on november 5th we''ll rise and welcome a new Commander in Chief: John McCain.

McCain picks a little known Gov. as VP, yet she still has more experience for the job than Obama. Can we just put McCain and Biden on the same ticket?

Thank you McCain for making this thing interesting. You could have gone with boring Pawlenty or Romney. And it would be the same scripted election as the others...new, exciting, change on the left and consistent, boring, sameness on the right. But this is a gamechanger. Wait, the republicans are young, attractive, and extremists?
