McCain's Gone Too Far with His Lies - Spread the Word
from MoveOn:
For weeks, John McCain has run one of the most dishonest campaigns in American history. Even Karl Rove had to admit McCain has gone too far.1
Now it's time to strike back -— to refocus voters on what we'll get if we elect McCain president. So today, we're launching a new ad that uses the facts to hit John McCain hard—reminding voters of his numerous ties to big oil companies and their lobbyists.
This is one of the top issues for swing voters—and the ad makes McCain's record clear. But we can only get it on the air if enough of us chip in.
TAKE ACTION TO HELP SPREAD THE WORD: Check out the video and then, IF YOU CAN, help us with a donation to get the ad on the air across the country.
Obama is going after McCain's lobbyists, too. Yesterday he said, "If you think those lobbyists are working day and night for John McCain just to put themselves out of business, well I've got a bridge to sell you up in Alaska."2
McCain's ties to oil lobbyists are a real liability—voters are furious at oil companies for high gas prices.3 And McCain is showing how out of touch he is on economic issues: Yesterday, as the stock market plummeted, McCain said he still thinks "the fundamentals of our economy are strong."4
Today, we can put McCain back on the defensive, just as Congress pushes to invest in clean energy by ending tax breaks for oil companies.
