AdWatch: Romney’s Rant Against Reagan-Bush
February 4, 2008, 8:55pm
With hundreds of delegates at stake in Super Tuesday voting tomorrow, John McCain and Mitt Romney are continuing their battle for the hearts of conservative voters over the airwaves.
McCain has been the one taking the most heat from establishment conservative commentators, but he is trying to score points by using Romney’s own words against him. In an ad titled “Trust,” McCain’s team highlights Romney emphasizing his independence, noting his vote in a Democratic primary and distancing himself from the time of Republican presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.
Romney’s campaign, meanwhile, has an ad dubbed “Very Close” that compares McCain’s views on hot-button issues like immigration with those of Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. Another Romney ad says McCain “Falls Short” in key policy areas.
