McCain's New TV Ad: 'Avid Earmarker'
Posted by Kyle Trygstad | Email This | Permalink | Email Author
John McCain's playing some offense on the airwaves in his Arizona Senate re-election battle against primary foe, former Rep. J.D. Hayworth. In a new TV ad, the announcer says:
John McCain wages a determined battle against pork barrel spending. He fights to save us money.
“But, J.D. Hayworth? Described as ‘an avid earmarker,' supported thousands of earmarks worth billions of dollars before we voted him out of office.
He's also running a similar ad on the radio, which you can listen to here. Both ads begin running statewide today.
