New DNC anti-McCain TV ad to appear on cable
By Jeremy PelzerA new Democratic National Committee ad that criticizes John McCain on Iraq will begin airing on cable TV in Colorado, the Colorado Democratic Party announced Tuesday.
The ad, entitled "100," will also be shown at Democratic organizational events around the state, a press release stated.
The ad begins by saying President Bush has talked about staying in Iraq for 50 years. It then has McCain add, “Maybe 100. That’d be fine with me.”
It ends with an announcer asking, "“If all he offers is more of the same, is John McCain the right choice for America’s future?”
The DNC said the ad will air nationwide. However, the Republican National Committee claims the ad distorts McCain's words and has written NBC, CNN, and MSNBC to insist they not air the ad.

Quote of the Day
October 9, 2008
"The United States Senate has effectively recessed for the remainder of the year, and will not be considering new legislative proposals. I am retiring, and so my Senate career has also ended. Accordingly, I feel that your thoughts and views on this matter would be best addressed to my successor. The benefit of hearing from constituents on legislative and governance issues should be extended to Coloradoʼs newest Senator and not archived with me."
