Summary: The ad aims to refute attacks by Obama chiding McCain for how many homes he owns by referencing McCain's POW experience in Vietnam.
Script of "Home" (TV)
ANNOUNCER [v/o]: This is the story of a John McCain home you might not know about.
During a combat mission over Vietnam, John McCain was shot down and severely injured. John McCain's new home for the next five and half years will be an enemy prison cell.
(Text on screen: Hanoi Hilton -- Vietnam)
This is where John McCain was starved, beaten, tortured and maimed for life.
So the next time Barack Obama talks about one of John McCain's homes, remember this one.
Paid for by the South Carolina Republican Party, Katon Dawson, chairman. And not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee.
