Hillary Clinton Ad: What Has Happened to Barack Obama

Hillary Clinton Ad: What Has Happened to Barack Obama

Hoping the proposal to suspend the gas tax will resonate with working class voters in Indiana and North Carolina, the Clinton campaign launched a last-minute ad in those states Monday that sharply attacks rival Barack Obama for not supporting the measure.

"What has happened to Barack Obama?" an announcer states in the new 30 second spot, among the campaign's most bruising to date.

"He is attacking Hillary's plan to give you a break on gas prices because he doesn't have one," the ad's announcer also says.

The ad comes on the heels of a weekend marked by heated back-and-forth between both campaigns over the issue. Obama's campaign launched an ad Sunday that called Clinton's proposal to suspend the gas tax a "classic Washington gimmick" and argues that oil companies will keep the extra proceeds from the suspension of the gas tax and will not pass the savings onto drivers.

The Clinton campaign countered that Obama is siding with the oil companies over hard working voters increasingly pinched by the price of gas.

[ralexand56]

You going to sit here and tell a bold faced lie about what she said.  You're the one that should be kicked out of the country.

Whatever. No need to rain on your parade so early in the game. It was good for a laugh though. McSame, ha ha ha... geez

No I am not more American then anyone else, on paper that is...... But I surely never said "this is the first time in my life I am proud to be an American" or " America is a mean Country".....

Oh and by the way I much prefer Kettle Cooked Mostique Chips and a nice Cold Miller Lite, which I will be enjoying greatly come November 4 when John McCain cuts Obamas butt.....

Are you one of these people that's "more American" than some of the others-- others that *don't agree with you???? Their citizenship is as valid as yours, or anyone else's. Why don't you eat some more Cheetos and watch more TV (don't forget the Kool-Aid)?

[spaceyg5]

The only reason I will get behind Obama is to kick his ass and his wifes ass out of this country.

[expatted]

Not if you get behind him. (I would never slap you.)

[spaceyg5]

Hey Obama we still waiting on your honest answers about your friendship with a known terroist and your relationship with your hatefull pastor.....
