New Obama Campaign Ad Sets Record Straight on Energy

On gas prices, John McCain’s part of the problem.

McCain and Bush support a drilling plan that won’t produce a drop of oil for seven years.

McCain will give more tax breaks to big oil.

He’s voted with Bush 95% of the time.

Barack Obama will make energy independence an urgent priority.

Raise mileage standards.

Fast track technology for alternative fuels.

A $1000 tax cut to help families as we break the grip of foreign oil.

A real plan and new energy.

OBAMA: I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message.

The ad will run in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin – the same four states in which the Republican National Committee is running false, negative ads attacking Barack Obama.

This is one of the reasons I personally support Sen. Obama’s opting out of Campaign Finance. This ad is supposed to counteract an ad made against Obama NOT from McCain but from the RNC. Now if Obama opted in to Campaign Finance he could not have wasted money debunking the lies in the RNC ad.
