I’m 100% with you on this one...
McCain did complain a little about Obama reneging on the agreement to use public financing, but never really hit him (Obama) with a line like: “Senator Obama has reneged on his agreement to use public financing of his campaign. How, then, can anyone trust his promises on anything else, especially tax cuts?” Or, hit even harder and say “Senator Obama has reneged on his agreement to use public financing for his campaign. This proves he cannot be trusted to honor ANY of his promises.”
(A comparison with how well North Korea honored their agreement with Clinton, on Nukes, could also be tossed in for additional effect.)
I would have run ads with Obama making his '95% tax cut' promise followed immediately by Clintoon's 1993 speech that he had 'looked as hard as he could' but couldn't find a way to keep his middle-class tax cut pledge.
This stuff ain't difficult. The Repubs didn't want to win, McCain was just like GHWB and Dole. They knew that.
Here's how it works: You get Clintoon to pass NAFTA and Welfare Reform (things a Repub couldn't do) and Shrub to pass the Patriot Act (something a Demo couldn't do).
Now we got Obama and who knows what his mission is?
The complete submission of the USA to Islam and the U.N.?
“About Obama reneging on his agreement to use public financing.”
I think the reason the McCain did not push this harder was that it appeared most of Obama’s financing was coming from many small contributions, thus not violating the spirit of being beholden to big money interests. Of course, if anyone has different information???
