WP, Kurtz: Kerry response ad to Bush negative tax ad airs today

New Bush Ad Assails Kerry on Taxes, War
Campaign Takes a Negative Turn
By Howard Kurtz
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, March 12, 2004; Page A01


Just one week after launching a wave of positive commercials, President Bush went on the attack with a new ad yesterday, charging that Democratic challenger John F. Kerry would "raise taxes by at least $900 billion" and weaken the country's response to terrorism and ability to go to war.

"John Kerry -- wrong on taxes, wrong on defense," says the ad, which begins airing today in 18 battleground states.

Kerry campaign officials, vowing to let no attack go unanswered, immediately began cutting a response ad for airing today. The commercial will deny any such proposed tax plan and remind viewers that Kerry wants to cut taxes for the middle class, the aides said.

"Once again George Bush is misleading America," the tentative script says, adding: "Doesn't America deserve more from its president than misleading negative ads?"

Taxes and terra, taxes and terra. He's failed miserably on both (unless you're a rich military contractor).

3. The immediate response is what impresses me --
"Kerry campaign officials, vowing to let no attack go unanswered,
immediately began cutting a response ad for airing today."
