Script of "TV Special" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: Behind the fancy speeches, grand promises and TV specials lies the truth:

With crises at home and abroad, Barack Obama lacks the experience America needs. And it shows. His response to our economic crisis is to spend and tax our economy deeper into recession.

The fact is, Barack Obama's not ready yet.

JOHN MCCAIN [v/o]: I'm John McCain, and I approve this message.

(Text on screen: Paid for by McCain-Palin 2008)
