Only 5-6 points behind and almost 4 months to show America the real Obama. If we were ever going to win is such a hostile environment, BHO is the guy to beat and Johnny Mac is the guy to beat him.
Let’s hope the RNC and the 527’s let er rip this fall.
Brilliant! Now thats what i’m talking about baby, hit him where it hurts the most….his own words! Great Ad and i wish they would play it on tv over and over again till the cows come home.
Hey Kavon i have a question for you, i was just listening to MSNBC and i know that they’re pretty liberal but they had a reporter on there who was saying that the McCain campaign is divided into 3 factions and that there is alot of infighting within the campaign on what direction to go in, do you know anything about this if its true or not and if Steve Schmidt is solving this issues within the campaign? I only know of how the campaign is going here in Florida where i live, particulary Jacksonville and we’re doing a pretty good job so far, but i was wandering if you knew anything about this? Thanks Kavon!
This actually seems like a very good ad to me. I have no meaningful complaints. But, I hope they find a way to hammer that “change that works for him” slogan into the public consciousness. Unless it becomes a meme, it’s going to come across as silly.
Yea i hope the RNC and the 527’s do work big time and that’s what McCain has got to hope for, that they lay into him b/c Obama will be raising tons of money to go up on TV and McCain needs all the help he can get. And that’s why with the addition of a Romney or Eric Cantor, who are capable of raising alot of cash can help McCain, of course they cant help McCains campaign b/c he’s taking public financing, but they can help with the RNC b/c they can raise as much money as they want up until the election and Romney or Cantor could help them out alot in that regards raising a lot of money, b/c goodness sakes we need all the money we can get right now, i’m doing my best just giving $25 a month but it’s all i can do.
Almost… it is too quick at the beginning. The ending is perfect, except a narrator explaining the what is happening to all the public school graduates would have helped.
I’m glad Obama’s Ministry of Truth is being called out on the re-writing of his position on the surge. However, the ad kind of leaves you hanging on what Obama actually said at the end when he scoffed at the question about whether he would change his 16 month timetable.
nice job by the rnc. This needs to be their main theme of attack. it is variation on flip flop. “change that workis for him” they should just narrow on this and nothing else.
Excellent ad. I agree Matthew Miller, that “change that works for him” is a great line. They need to plaster that saying everywhere. All the Obama has going for him is the whole “change” mantra. If they can tarnish that, then it’s game-over for the Illinois senator.
is McCain running any ads disputing Obama’s claim the supported welfare reform? In case you may not know, it is the ad he is running it 18 states that says he supported welfare reform that reduced the rolls by 80% when, in fact, he was against it.
i wouldnt mind obama winning if i knew for sure petraeus would run.
imagine the 2000 bush machine, money, and organization behind a candidate like petraeus, who is a thousand times smarter and more accomplished then bush was. petraeus would crush obama in a landslide. to see obama’s face on election night might be worth it.
Has anyone heard what Obama has just said today? He says that he is the underdog for what he says are “apparent reasons” Well, what in the hell apparents reasons are there BHO?! Why don’t you tell us ignorant folks who cling to our guns and religion.
Maybe Ron Paul should run after all. He’s one of many anti-war candidates. I can no longer count Barack Obama among the anti-war crowd. Obama is a flipflop first and anti-war second.

Race42008 called the Nixon “laugh”. I give you credit for this, and obviously the RCN say the same thing.

Good stuff. I think that “Change that Works for Him” has the potential to become the meme.
July 8th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
Another brilliant ad.
July 8th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Looks like the RNC’s next ad attacking Obama is already in the can…
The pussified capitulator is already a hit with the mullahs.
July 8th, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Aside from a great ad, it’s striking, well disturbing actually that so many people are willing to hand over our national security to him.
July 8th, 2008 at 2:53 pm

Getting way ahead here, but are we even sure Petraeus is conservative on the economy or social issues?

July 8th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Now, if the RNC’s admakers can boil this down to :15 or :30, we’ll be set. This is WAAY too long - even for a Web ad.
July 8th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
“Change that works for him”
Pretty darn catchy!
July 8th, 2008 at 4:44 pm

July 8th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
It’s a good ad. Now if only there were a conservative candidate opposing Barack to benefit from these ads.
July 8th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
On #19. he’s playing the race card, very subtly and obviously no one will call him on it.
July 8th, 2008 at 9:51 pm
Well, someone like O’Reilly and Dick Morris and Sean Hannity on their radio shows and their TV shows need to call him on it like they always do.
July 8th, 2008 at 9:55 pm
I knew he was playing the race card, I was just calling him out to explain himself.
