| | The McCain Update - July 4, 2008
As Americans, we are blessed to live in a free country that affords its citizens liberty and prosperity that people in other countries will never know. John McCain is proud to be an American and is constantly inspired by people he meets around the country who share in his love of our nation and all it represents.
During this Independence Day weekend, please take a moment to honor America and all that we are. Also, remember our military servicemen and women who are protecting our freedom across the globe and fighting for those who do not have the liberty our great country provides. Let us never forget those who have sacrificed before us to protect the United States and the values we hold dear.
A Different Kind of Politics
This past weekend, Barack Obama's campaign surrogate General Wesley Clark attacked the military service record of John McCain. Despite Barack Obama's repeated claims that he will be running a different kind of campaign, it is clear that he has failed to deliver.
John McCain wants this campaign to be about the issues - a campaign that focuses on real solutions to the challenges. Unfortunately, Senator Obama and his campaign surrogates seem unwilling to engage in that conversation.
Take a stand today with John McCain and tell us what you think about Senator Obama's emerging record - a record that doesn't match his promise for a different kind of politics. Click here to continue.
