Got it. Wow! That a devastating ad. I actually read a little while ago that the POW/MIA families have been organizing. I wonder if today's announcement of another 527 is the POW/MIA group?

"That ad is devastating to Kerry. "
Using his own voice, how sweet it is!!! The truth will win.

Devastating to Kerry. If this ad gets significant airtime, Kerry is toast. Anyone who tries to slime the POWs deserves a fate worse than death.
Let's hear McCain's reaction to this ad. Ha!
To: hinterlander
INCREDIBLE! Very Sincere Ad....
On Fox and Friends this morning, John ONeil made it totally clear their effort is for "Anybody but Kerry!" He said they want to tell the American Public what they believe and know in their Hearts, that the Kerry they know closely is "UNFIT for COMMAND." Very Compelling!
To: TexasNative2000
Kerry is toast and his own words are doing the damage. Making his Vietnam record a centerpoint for his campaign is just his latest self-inflicted wound.
He was somehow awarded purple hearts for the 1st 2 self-inflicted wounds and now wants to be awarded with the Presidency.

Holy crap. This may be the single most devastating TV ad in political history Kind of makes Johnson's nuclear war ad look like kid's play.
To: Alberta's Child
They live in an alternate universe in Mass. Junior Senator is a traitor. Senior Senator is a murderer.
To: Toonces T. Cat
Your absolutely right...
I remember reading that McCain loathed Kerry, primarily because his anti-war efforts were used by the Viet Cong captors to taunt the American POWs.
I wonder if McCain is nuts enough to deny these former POWs their right to "express" their anger in these ads, or if he'll offer them an opportunity to "discuss their issues" with Kerry, as he did?
To: BeforeISleep
I think Kerry is too arrogant to pull out.
To: DrewsDad
As I've said before; given his testimony during that hearing, Kerry is either a war criminal or a perjurer.

What the hell were they thinking? Hoping the liberal media would hide the truth; Swifties are forcing their hands.

When Bush wins, these ads will go down in history as some of the most effective political ads ever. And not even run by the candidates.

I hope this one gets the exposure the first one did - 966,000 hits 8 - 14 Aug for the first ad.

I am convinced that the left-wing media and dnc get an ego trip out of trying to get the most pathetic characters to be "accepted" or voted in to office. It shows how powerful they are.
Clinton had a game where he would get into controversy, just to get out of it. I think there is an actually named psychological disorder for this. In the business world, it's called "stress puppy". Someone who loves stress and being put into a make or break situation... even, if they have to create the problem themselves.

This is even more devastating than the first ad, if that's possible.
Superb ad.
And Kerry's actions are beneath contempt.

They brazenly let Kerry onto the ticket, because they thought that truth had been trumped by McCain-Feingold. They arrogantly thought that the sordid past of Kerry (subject of the new ad) could not see the light of day, since the Republican Party would never have the nerve to use the information.
They never conceived of what $100,000 and truth could lead to.
