TV Ad: Gambling

[maneeshpan]

A very good ad -- McCain has changed a lot since 2000-2003 he was a maverick in those days opposing negative campaign ads but used them for his Presidential campaign in 08. Gambling? You want to place bets on the economy? Support Fair Elections Now Act and quit taking gambling money.

Very cool video.I will vote for it!

[WhistlersBrother]

He just made the ultimate gamble and lost. (Picking for his running mate a sassy sexy pitbull with lipstick and who would be a complete disaster if McCain died and left her as President.)

It was a good strategy, to pick a woman and try to get as many of those Hillary enthusiasts as possible, but problem is, that chick represented the opposite of what most Hillary supporters stand for.

He crapped out on that one big time.

I can't stand McLame and Pornlin, but I do love gambling.

[ThumperBunny43]

McCain's a BIG gambler himself, at these casinos. His "handlers" try to get him to stop or at least keep it a secret.

Gamblers should NOT be running a country.

Well, gambling is legal in Nevada, isn't it? What's wrong with taking contributions from that industry, as well as Wall Street?

[jan7heaven]

Gambling may be legal. So were credit default swaps which are another form of gambling which had been declared illegal after the crash of '29. Both gambling and credit default swaps have destroyed many people and the economy. Legal does not equal right. The less gambling the better.

[maneeshpan]

Agreed -- gambling may be legal however, allowing risky speculating, business and financial monopolies to do predatory business practices and bring our economy down is unacceptable. We need the economy to work for consumers and America's workforce we need labor rights reforms and consumer protections. Just called McCain's office asking that he to stop gambling and support Fair Elections Now Act!

@jan7heaven false you have no business telling someone else what they can and cant do with their money ot body. If I want to smoke crack and blow all my money on craps. Its not your. the governments or anyone elses business.

[gameshowguy2000]

I wonder what Vegas' own Harry Reid would think of this.

[conservative5187]

I'm sure that the $700 billion payout for the gamblers on Wall Street is factored in those campaign contributions as well.

[DaleZy]

Why shouldn't conservatives know about his connections to gambaling??

[marytnurse]

freff, they are planning on running it in FL and in VA. besides, i would think even in NV, the gaming industry owning the POTUS would be an issue....i mean, those of you who ARE the electorate wouldn't care if the gaming industry had even more power, right? share this thing! get the numbers up!!

[EricMetalGuitarist]

"Just so you know."

Point taken.

[freff]

I'll be honest. I hope that you're not planning on running this in Nevada. Some messages work better in certain places than others.

Just so you know.
