Transcript

(Motors revving)

Announcer: Listen to John McCain speaking to motorcycle enthusiasts in Sturgis, South Dakota, on Tuesday.

McCain: Not long ago a couple of hundred thousand Berliners made a lot of noise for my opponent. I'll take the roar of 50,000 Harleys any day...

Announcer: But when it comes to his record, American-made motorcycles like Harleys don't matter to John McCain. Back in Washington, McCain opposed the requirement that the government buy American-made motorcycles. And he said all buy-American provisions were quote "disgraceful." Surprised? You shouldn't be. This is the same John McCain who supported billions in tax breaks for companies who ship American jobs overseas.

(More motors revving)

Announcer: It's time to hear the roar of the strong American economy again -- and stop John McCain from shipping our jobs overseas.

Obama: I'm Barack Obama, candidate for president, and I approved this message. Paid for by Obama for America.

Yes, it really does take the thunder out of McCain's Sturgis rally.

But the highlight of that rally remains this:

3. Too Bad they can't get these ads out before McCain gets to the location
Imagine his welcoming reception at Sturgis and in Whelmington OH
If audience had known about his record a few day before he got there

4. Great point, Heathr MC. Which begs the question: WHY NOT?? Isn't that why campaign gurus are paid
the big bucks?

5. Actually - VERY GOOD POINT
Lots of folks are arguing Obama should stay out of the negative campaigning, which unfortunately appeals well to the “sound byte” type voters

Being proactive and beating McCain to the punch so to speak would speak more to the intellectual side of many potential voters as well

Multifaceted
