McCain-Palin 2008 Launches New Television Ad: "Freedom"

McCain-Palin 2008 Launches New Television Ad: "Freedom"

ARLINGTON, VA -- Today, McCain-Palin 2008 released its latest television ad, entitled "Freedom." The ad features John McCain speaking directly to the American people about his belief in this country and his plan to build a stronger America by growing our economy and cutting waste. In this election, the American people are offered a clear choice -- hope for a stronger America or the knowledge that we will build a stronger America because only John McCain has the experience and leadership to do so. The ad will be televised in key states.

Script For "Freedom" (TV :30)

JOHN MCCAIN: I've served my country since I was 17 years old.

And, spent five years longing for her shores.

I came home dedicated to a cause greater than my own.

We can grow our economy.

We will cut government waste.

Don't hope for a stronger America.

Vote for one.

Join me.

ANNCR: McCain.

John McCain: I'm John McCain and I approve this message.

Actress Maria Conchita Alonso Endorses John McCain

Actress Maria Conchita Alonso Endorses John McCain

ARLINGTON, VA -- Today the McCain-Palin campaign announced the endorsement of Maria Conchita Alonso, a Latin American actress who has starred in television and film for three decades. Alonso, who was born in Cuba and raised in Venezuela, recently appeared on CSI: Miami and Desperate Housewives and starred alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Running Man.

"As a Latina and a new American citizen, I believe in this country and its people, and I believe that we need more than just 'change.' We need a leader who can bring about the right kind of change, and John McCain has the experience and judgment necessary to lead us in these uncertain times," Alonso said. "I grew up in Cuba and Venezuela, and I am appalled that Barack Obama apparently wants to emulate the "spread the wealth" economic policies of those countries and negotiate with their leaders. For me the choice is clear, and I believe it is my duty to share my views even though it might not make me popular in Hollywood."

After a successful career in Venezuela as a beauty queen, telenovela star, film actress and singer, Alonso emigrated to the United States from Caracas, Venezuela in 1982. She has appeared in dozens of films and television shows since then and was the first South American star to star on Broadway.

McCain-Palin 2008 Launches New Television Ad: "Obama Praising McCain"

McCain-Palin 2008 Launches New Television Ad: "Obama Praising McCain"

ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign today released its latest television ad, entitled "Obama Praising McCain." The ad highlights Barack Obama's past praise for John McCain on the issue of confronting global climate change. As he said numerous times during the first debate, Barack Obama often believes John McCain is right. The ad will air in key states.

Script For "Obama Praising McCain" (TV :30)

ANNCR: The truth on global warming:

BARACK OBAMA: The right approach begins with the proposal put forward by Senator Lieberman and Senator McCain.

The Lieberman-McCain bill establishes limits for greenhouse gas emissions. It's a framework that's not only good for the environment, it's also good for business.

I want to thank Senator Lieberman, as well as Senator McCain, for the outstanding leadership that they've shown.

JOHN MCCAIN: I'm John McCain and I approve this message.
