John McCain’s new Spanish-language radio ad continues his recent trend of taking aim at Barack Obama’s celebrity, but the ad is primarily an attack on the Democratic presidential candidate’s economic policies.

 

The 60-second ad, which is airing in Colorado, Florida, Nevada and New Mexico, begins with the narrator saying, in Spanish, “Fame must be grand for Barack Obama. But is he ready to lead in tough economic times?”

 

The ad then goes on to attack Obama for having a “grand history of raising taxes,” and states that his campaign promises “would mean even more taxes on income, electricity, small business, seniors, your life savings, your family.”

 

“Painful taxes – when times are tough enough,” the narrator says.
