Posted by Matt Ortega on April 27, 2008 at 09:00 AM

We released our second national television ad this morning on John McCain and Iraq. Watch it below:

You can help us inform the American people about John McCain's commitment to a hundred year presence in Iraq.

WOW! This is Sunday, and most blogs have very light posting but this ad is getting rave reviews on:

Talking Points Memo
Carpetbagger Report
Atrios / Eschaton
AmericaBlog
Skippy the Bush Kangaroo

Keep up the great work!

Great commercials! What a slam. Great job, DNC.

Did anybody notice that one of the lines, "are you better off," (paraphrased) is what I have been suggesting? Who would dare dispute the situation?
I would like to see Faux News try.

I don't know a person except the wealthy people in Oklahoma that aren't struggeling with the price of gas, grocerys, medical, etc. It is terrable, many don't know how long they can hold on.
I wish we, (Democrats), could take over today.

This is why I think Hillary is tough enough to take anything the Republicans can throw at her and smile, answer, and continue to let her heart go out to those hurting and do something about it.

Look at the problems that already have been throwed at her in this race. Also, a steady call for her to step down. She continues to campaign and win many States. And all the while she is telling you to hold on, she has plans to stop the terrible economy crash and make it better for all.

At one time she was saying to a friend if the people will hold on there will be joy in the morning the crying will only last through the night.

She is well aware of how the people are struggling, She will use her plans to ease the stress until her plans get the economy popping like it did in the 90's.

Remember when she broke down and said the State of the economy and the State of our Foreign Affairs is very personal to her.

If you only knew her, you would know she will work until most of the people feel things ease up. Then she will ease up and use her creatability to make this Nation Safer and well loved all over the World again. She will use strong Diplomacy to touch the trouble spots.

I could talk all night but I will close and pray that you will look at Hillary and see her as she is, a hard worker and a brillant mind with all her plans for every problem this Nation has.

Hi, I'm signed in here this morning on the DNC blog, but can't post this morning on the open thread. There was a prompt to fill out a form, which I did. But, nothing has come to my e-mail account. Understandably, I don't wish to make my home address public, although I will say I live in Chambersburg, PA. My husband and I proudly voted for Hillary Clinton for President on April 22. I hope voting for Hillary didn't get us kicked off the DNC blog.

Sad. Twisting words and then saying they are his own. Doc Dean is a discrace trying to defend this on the Sunday news shows.

This ad is digusting and misleading.

You know full well that Senator McCain was talking about maintaining a base in Iraq much as we have in Europe and S Korea and yet you chose to imply that Senator McCain endorses the carnage and destruction of an all out war.

Shame on you. I expect more from the Democratic Party than a biased and false 'swiftboating' of a good man. Yet another reason to doubt your ability to properly address the problems we face.
