[Music] Male Announcer: Every time
you fill your tank, the oil companies fill their pockets. Now Big Oil’s filling John McCain’s campaign with 2 million dollars in contributions. Because instead of taxing their windfall profits to help
drivers, McCain wants to give them another 4 billion in tax
breaks. After one president in the pocket of big oil… We can’t afford
another. Barack Obama… A windfall profits tax on big oil to give families a thousand dollar rebate. A president who’ll stand up for you. Obama (voiceover): I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message. |

Notes: This ad
was released on the day that Obama outlined his "New Energy for America
Plan" in a speech in Lansing, MI. McCain campaign spokesman
Tucker Bounds responded with this statement:
Notes: Response from the
McCain campaign:
"Barack Obama's latest negative
attack ad shows his celebrity is matched only by his hypocrisy, after
all it was Senator Obama, not John McCain, who voted for the
Bush-Cheney energy bill that was a sweetheart deal for oil companies.
Also not mentioned is the $400,000 from big oil contributors that
Barack Obama has already pocketed in this election."
