"Celeb"

July 30, 2008

Another negative TV spot from John McCain's camp. This one notes that Barack Obama is "the biggest celebrity in the world," and features footage from Obama's Berlin speech and shots Paris Hilton and Brittany Spears. But a female narrator asks, "Is he ready to lead?" The spot accuses Obama of opposing offshore drilling and promising to raise taxes on electricity.

Narrator: "Higher taxes, more foreign oil, that's the real Obama."

But, is he ready to lead?

With gas prices soaring, Barack Obama says no to offshore drilling.

And, says he'll raise taxes on electricity.
