Just saw "The Same" ad. Anyone else seen this one?
I'm down in Ft. Lauderdale for a conference and this was the first I've seen this ad.

Gotta say, this one is just as good as the "Fundamentals" ad.

Actually has McCain admitting on camera that he has voted with Bush over 90% of the time. He even admits his loyalty to Bush is more than his fellow Republican colleagues.

Check it out if you have yet to see it:

13. And highlights, without a doubt, that McCain can never separate himself from Bush.
I'm really excited for the debates and can't wait to see how McCain tries to back out of this one.

Quite an effective ad. Should leave quite a mark on McSame's behind.

4. I love it...
McCain's OWN words being used against him. He actually used his 90% voting record to tie himself WITH Bush. Let me guess, was this around 2004 when all the Republicans were falling in line for Bush's re-election? Regardless of when it was, it's pretty clear that at the time he made those comments, he was DAMN PROUD to have voted 90+% of the time with Dumbya.

Normally, I don't get the opportunity to see the really good ads.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope it does some damage.

:hug:

14. Hey, pssssssst, DU, come here.....They've been sitting on that ad for weeks...
And there are more to come....

Anyone concerned with how the ads wars are going, please stop worrying.

And just be sure to volunteer some time to your local campaign or phonebank from your computer.

Donations are good, too, but the ground game is gonna turn this into a landslide, if WE get out there and do it.

:patriot:

18. I know. That's why I avoided all the chicken little threads over the past few weeks.
What's the point of them anyway? So they can say "I told you so", if Obama/Biden end up losing?

19. Exactly...there was no point to them.
They were pretty annoying....and some were critical to the point of distraction.

One person said they'd not contribute any more unless he went on the attack, like right away!!!

15. I think that is the only ad they have been playing in DC/VA/MD for at least a week now.
It is pretty darn good.

16. It's good and silly. I think it works. But right now with this crisis we need more serious
and hard hitting ads. This ad is still good and an older one.
