 Stated Issue: John McCain's "Two-Faced" Ways

The stated issue of this advertisement is that John McCain, along with his fellow republicans, has developed a two-faced reputation when it comes to politics. The ad quotes "John McCain and his Republican friends have two faces. One that says lies just to get our vote and another, even worse, that continues the policies of George Bush that put special interests ahead of working families." On many occasions McCain has gone back on his word or changed his mind, deeply upsetting the American people. He often says one thing about an issue, but later, when the time to vote comes, goes against his previous statements and sides with the rest of the republicans. For example, according to Rachel Maddow, a MSNBC political analyst, he has made statements like this concerning fair pay for women, tax cuts, immigration reform, torture and the War in Iraq. This ad's main concern is convincing the American public that although McCain puts on the face of a perfect politician, if one is to look into his ACTUAL views on issues his real side becomes apparent.
