JOHN MCCAIN LAUNCHES FIRST RADIO AD IN SOUTH CAROLINA
COLUMBIA, SC -- U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign today launched its first radio ad in South Carolina. The ad, titled "Best Prepared," features U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham and highlights John McCain's early support for the troop surge in Iraq and readiness to lead as commander in chief on day one.
Script for "Best Prepared" (:60-Radio):
ANNCR: "Seven months ago, Democrat Majority Leader Harry Reid said the war in Iraq was lost. Well, he was wrong. Listen to South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham."
LINDSEY GRAHAM: "I've been to Iraq nine times. The troop surge is working. Terrorists are on the run, and we need a president prepared to win."
ANNCR: "Only one candidate had the courage to call for the troop surge in spite of the polls, and that's John McCain."
LINDSEY GRAHAM: "John McCain is the only candidate for president prepared to be Commander-in-Chief on day one. No candidate can match his record of service. And as all the polls indicate, he's the only Republican who can beat Hillary Clinton in the general election. So our party and our nation need John McCain."
ANNCR: "When we vote, South Carolina can send a big message: Let our troops win."
LINDSEY GRAHAM: "John McCain is the right choice. He's ready to lead, and he's prepared to win."
JOHN MCCAIN: "I'm John McCain and I approve this message."
ANNCR: "Paid for by John McCain 2008."
