Words do matter - new Iran ad

Wed Apr 23, 2008 at 06:55:38 AM PDT

After last night, I went to bed strategizing. I want primary season to be over.Obama needs something to cause a little controversy for Hillary and put her on defense. I think her words about obliterating Iran need some further discusssion.

This ad might just do that. It would play to Obama's strengths, not be too negative, but be hard hitting. Hillary has tried to use Obama's ability to speak as a weakness thru out the whole campaign, constantly throwing out that he is "just words". This ad would be a good way to turn it back on her.

Not expensive to shoot and something that would get a lot of air time and discussion on tv.

Open with video of each

George Bush- Bring it on
John McCain-Bomb, bomb, Iran
Hillary Clinton-Obliterate Iran

cut to Obama looking into the camera.

Obama-It's going to take a cool head  and a
     different kind of words to get us out of
     Iraq and restore our reputation in the world.
     Words do matter.
     
I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message

I do think this could be a powerful ad, and put Hillary on defense.

If this is going to end, he's going to have to inflict some blows,and take her down a notch.

She has shown no hesitation to jump on Obama's words, and stir up controversy over nothing.

Only difference, her words are not a manufactured controversy. They were deadly serious and show how she would conduct foreign policy.

Words do matter.
