JOHN MCCAIN 2008 LAUNCHES NEW TELEVISION AD, "NOT EASY"
ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign today announced a new television ad to run in New Hampshire. The ad, entitled "Not Easy," focuses on John McCain's demonstrated record of leadership -- putting America's national security interests over politics to do what's right, not only when it's easy, but when it's hard.
This week, Senator Joe Lieberman (I-CT) said:
"John McCain has proven that we can trust him to do what is right for our country, not only when it is easy, but when it is hard; to do what is necessary, not only when it is popular, but when it is not; and to tell us the truth, not only when it is easy to hear, but when it is not. ... When it comes to keeping America safe in this time of war, John has proven that he has the experience, the strength, and the character, to be our commander-in-chief from day one."
"Not Easy" will run on New Hampshire and Boston television.
