Script For “Enough Is Enough” (TV :30)

JOHN MCCAIN: The economy is in crisis. Enough is enough. I’ll meet this financial crisis head on.

Reform Wall Street. New rules for fairness and honesty. I won’t tolerate a system that puts you and your family at risk.

Your savings, your jobs … I’ll keep them safe.

ANNCR: Experience and leadership in a time of crisis.

JOHN MCCAIN: I’m John McCain and I approved this message.

1. First it's 'turn the page', then 'change we need'

Now 'enough is enough'?

Wow.

Talk about "Change you can Xerox".

[slinkerwink]

2. yep. They're ripping off Obama's lines

[charlyvi]

3. The man can't stop himself from co-opting Obama's catch phrases, can he? n/t

[slinkerwink]

8. yeah, but it's effective

The productive values on this ad are very good. Obama's advertising team doesn't have this kind of production quality.

[DarienComp]

20. I don't think production values really count much toward being effective.

Plus, I thought Obama pretty effectively called out McCain yesterday: "Instead of borrowing our lines, they should borrow some of our ideas!"

I also think Obama's production values are fine.

[slinkerwink]

30. Yes, they do.

Many political strategists have called out the difference between Obama's advertising and McCain's advertising. Obama's is a bit weaker than McCain's.

[my3boyz]

22. What are you talking about? Didn't you see Obama's ad today? nt

[slinkerwink]

31. I did, and it was great

[Ichingcarpenter]

4. Good Grief

[dgibby]

21. NEVER mess with the Polar Bears

for they are hungry and you are too old to run!:rofl:

[blondeatlast]

23. Oh, damn, that second one... LOLOLOL! nt

[alcibiades_mystery]

5. This is just childish shit meant to piss liberals off and thereby inflame the moron base

He's like the annoying booger-picking imbecile in your fourth grade class who copies everyone to irritate them.

[MarjorieG]

18. I know, but wise to point up lack of originality-in an ad?

[anneboleyn]

6. Sad that McCain just steals all of Obama's lines/ideas, like "8 is enough" and "change"

He has no imagination.

[ErinBerin84]

7. "New rules for fairness and honesty." Care to expand on that a bit, Johnny boy?

:puke:

[graywarrior]

9. I hate him.

[SeaLyons]

10. What a damn plagiarizer!!!!

Can't this idiot come up with anything on his own?

[ljm2002]

11. That is just begging for a response...

John McCain: "Enough is enough"

Announcer: "Oh, really?"

cut to John McCain voting against regulation (show date)

cut to Barack Obama speaking out against Wall Street excesses over a year ago (show date)

cut to John McCain saying yesterday that "the fundamentals of the economy are strong" (show date)

cut to Barack Obama saying yesterday that "the economy is broken" (show date)

..."He is right about one thing, though: Enough is enough!!!"

[LunaSea]

12. I fully expect McCain to show up sporting a dark airbrushed tan...

any day now.

[City Lights]

25. I'm sure Sarah would let him use her tanning bed!

:D

[medicswife]

26. Maybe he can just fly to Alaska and borrow Sarah's tanning bed! nt

[City Lights]

28. GMTA!

:hi:

[Ian David]

13. Once again, John McPlagiarist is stealing again. n/t

[medicswife]

14. hahahaha This from the same man that had a hand in the

Savings and Loan debacle? I was a teenager during that mess, but I sure as hell remember it.

Freaking thieving Refuckuplicans.

[LiberalAndProud]

15. The populist message seems to be contagious.

Me? I'll choose the real deal rather than the hypocrite, but that's just me.

[sandyj999]

16. Hmmmmmmmm where have I heard this before?

That man and his campaign don't seem to have an original thought except the famous "My friends, the economy is fundamentally sound."

[Virginia Dare]

17. Munchhausen Syndrome by proxy...

sat by while this whole mess unfolded, even helped it along with his good republicon buds in the Senate, then wants to rush in like the White Knight and save us all. He claims he knows how to "win" the Iraqi war too.

[krawhitham]

19. OK, it is time to whip out Keating Five

[napi21]

24. Yea, right! Same way you voted to remove any oversight of

your corporate buddies in the past! Guess what John? Everybody says Wall Street has lost it's credibility. Well, John...so did YOU!!!!!

[butterfly77]

27. I posted on Sunday...

that they were going to be rolling out enough is enough after I saw Carly ferrino on "This Week" say this at the end of her comments and then the next day McCain began saying it...

[jenmito]

29. Obama should run a response ad showing HIM first saying, "Enough is enough," then showing a clip of

McCain's copy-cat ad, then show other examples of Obama saying things first and McCain following, ending by saying what he said on the campaign trail yesterday: "McCain has started copying my phrases and they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but he needs to copy some of my POLICIES." (paraphrased)

[davepc]

32. As long as we play this Obama ad right after that one airs...

[LynneSin]

33. Only question is this: WHY THE FUCK DO WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL 2009 FOR THIS JOHN??!!

This is the same stupid philosphy that McSame was using with Osama bin Laden - Elect me and I'll catch bin Laden. :wtf: If you know how to catch this asshole then do it NOW, don't give us this teaser that says "Hey I'll catch him but if you have to elect me first" bullshit.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

34. Tomorrow John McCain will call himself a community organizer

inside the Hanoi Hilton.

[Pirate Smile]

35. Arrgghhhh! They keep trying to take over Obama's lines. They are pathetic.

They just want to confuse everyone.

They've use "more of the same", "change we need", and now "enough is enough" in their ads.

God, they make me sick.

[southern_belle]

36. The McCain campaign can't come up with an original

thought? That's pitiful! :rofl:

[ericgtr]

37. Interesting - This is a defensive ad

Nobody will believe it for two reasons, first is that he knows nothing about the economy and second is that nobody will believe he actually made an ad that isn't attacking Obama with a bunch of lies, I don't care if he approves it or not.

[slinkerwink]

39. Actually people can believe ads like this

It's meant to fool them.

[anonymous171]

38. This ad works because people trust McCain. Obama's campaign needs to attack his credibility.

[slinkerwink]

40. Exactly.

[PA Democrat]

41. McCain's campaign has become a cheap, poorly-made knock off of the real thing.

John McCain is a shoddily constructed fake; he is a counterfeit populist. In short, he is a liar.

[quakerboy]

42. Its simple

This one worries me. I am worried. Worry worry worry.

No really. It actually does. I hope Obama has some better ones, because this is our winning issue.

[BlueIdaho]

43. Operation Chaff

Chaff is used to confuse radar so the target can't be found. The republicans are parroting our ads to confuse voters. All voters hear is the same message from both campaigns - so they think "Aw - all them politicians are alike - it doesn't matter who I vote for..." It is meant to drive down voter turnout, confuse voters, and diminish our messages of HOPE and CHANGE. Instead of running a campaign on the issues and their solutions, they have turned to cynical but effective voter manipulation.

This is not a sign of a campaign that has no ideas - this is the sign of a KKKarl Rove campaign.

edit typo

[applegrove]

44. First they steal "change" then they steal the word "enough" - when will

they come up with their own plans for the presidency instead of blatantly copying Obama?
