MCCAIN BEGS NC REPUBLICANS TO KILL REV. WRIGHT TV AD


[ Politico.com]


In an attempt to lay down a marker on racially-motivated tactics, McCain's campaign sends word that the candidate himself sent a strongly-worded email to North Carolina GOP chair Linda Daves regarding their anti-Obama ad. McCain said in a letter to the NC GOP, "This ad does not live up to the very high standards we should hold ourselves to in this campaign."

However, the NC GOP will run the ad anyway.

The North Carolina GOP will still run an ad featuring Barack Obama's pastor despite the pleas of the RNC and John McCain himself, according to a spokesman for the state party:

"Yes, the ad will air," said Brent Woodcox, communications director for the North Carolina GOP.

The ad appears above.
