Whose Crazy Preacher?

'Nuff said.

TITLE: At 72, John McCain would be the oldest person elected to a first term as President. What do we know about his health?

First, some 30-second edit of this:



Note: be sure to zoom in on that mention of McCain on Ambien.

Then, quote from 25th Amendment: "Whenever the President...is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office...such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President."

Cut to:



VO: "What does the Veep do? Unfortunately, in a McCain administration probably much more than you think, Governor."

END TITLE: Release your full health records, Senator. It's time the American people knew the full story.

On "Economy is Sound"

John McCain is trying to play word games with American workers. First he said "the economy is fundamentally sound." Then he tried to say all he meant was you, the workers, were sound. If he thinks that's all it takes to have a good economy, then he sure was right when he said economics isn't his strong suit.

Senator, we all know American workers are as sound and as strong as anywhere in the world. But why don't you try explaining to them why so many of them are out of work in this "sound economy" of yours. Explain to them why you spent the last 26 years in Washington helping out the Savings and Loans and Enrons of this world, while you voted year after year against increasing the minimum wage.

American workers are indeed strong, Senator. But they and their families are gonna be hurting a lot more if you and Sarah Palin are elected.

Intervention Time

(For surrogates, not the candidate)

Say you have a friend, a wise old friend, been around the block a few times, and now he tells you he's marrying a telegenic, inexperienced teenager he's been on one date with. You try to warn him, she's out for your money!, or do you really want her to raise your children should anything happen to you? But he goes ahead with the wedding plans anyway.

Wouldn't you say at that point it's time to get his friends together and stage an intervention?

Well, where are John McCain's more responsible conservative friends who surely must see his folly?

Because it's not just him that's marrying Sarah Palin--it could be all of us soon.

Palin & Pork

Idea for Ad:

Voice Over: The Wall St. Journal claims, that in less than two years as Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin "has asked U.S. taxpayers to [spend] $453 million"...for a state of less than a million people.

Cut to: McCain's June "green screen" speech, w/ awkward smile...
"That's Not Change We Can Believe In."

Voice Over: Want real reform? Vote Obama/Biden.

On Sarah Palin "having it all"

Look, there's no point debating whether Sarah Palin could be Vice President while raising five kids. Because obviously, in the White House, she'll have decent child care. The real question is: why don't Sarah Palin and John McCain want to make it possible for other moms of five kids to have careers and support their families.

On the Wall Street mess

Times are pretty tough now economically. But as you've been reading in the papers and seeing on the news, it's about to get a lot tougher. Even Wall Street's scared. So who do you trust when that happens? The party of "you're on your own" that calls you a "nation of whiners"? Do you trust John McCain who admits he doesn't know too much about economics? OR, do you put the people back in charge who gave us prosperity in the 90s and who actually understand technology, trade, and job security. The party looking out for your healthcare, unemployment insurance, and education.

On "Sex Ed"

John McCain attacks Barack Obama for voting to educate kids about avoiding sexual predators. Because that's what he voted for--despite McCain's distortions. So the question for John McCain is: why don't you want to stop child molestors?
