McCain Ad - “Broken”

We’re worse off then we were four years ago.

Yes, we are.  And that’s a direct result of the Bush Administration and Republican Congress.  McCain campaign vigorously for Bush in 2004 and has been a supporter of Bush’s policies in Congress.  Yes, we are worse off than four years ago; it’s McCain’s fault.

Only McCain has taken on Big Tabacco, Drug Companies, fought corruption in both parties, he’ll reform Wall Street, battle Big Oil.

Well that list is full of more lies than I can count.  McCain supported the Medicare “reform” that forced Medicare to not negotiate for drug prices, costing taxpayers and seniors billions of extra dollars to pay for medicine.  As for corruption, John McCain sure knows about that: I’ll refer you to The Keating Five.

He’s the original maverick.  One is ready to lead.

No, he’s been a party line guy who has taken a few different positions here and there to cultivate the maverick image.  He’s no maverick though.  He rubber-stamped Bush policies for eight years and drove this country into ruin.  John McCain is not offering change.  He’s offering more of the same.
