The GOP is planning a major TV campaign of lies in the next couple of days.

> Use Oprah to Defeat Obama! Message from The National Republican Trust PAC
> From Scott Wheeler
> Executive Director Dear Townhall Reader: Oprah Winfrey, Obama's big
> celebrity backer, can help us defeat Barack Obama. In fact, we at the
> National Republican Trust PAC are using her with great success to defeat
> Obama. But before I reveal our "Oprah" strategy, let me remind you that we
> can win this race. Barack Obama can be defeated. The latest AP poll and
> Investor's Business Daily polls both show the race is neck-and- neck. Both
> the AP and IBD poll shows McCain jus t one point behind Obama! Yet, the big
> media continues to tell us that McCain has lost the election! The liberal
> media is in full spin mode to help depress the Republican vote, Republican
> donors and Republican enthusiam. We here at the National Republican Trust
> are fighting to win. So far with your help we have been blanketing Ohio
> with TV ads exposing Obama as the most radical ever nominated by the
> Democratic party. Since we started our ad campaign there, McCain has risen
> in the polls. This weekend we are opening up new fronts with more ads
> attacking Obama in Florida and three other battleground states. We urgently
> need more help from you to expand our ad war to expose Obama's radical
> agenda. Obama is outspending McCain 3 to 1 and in some states 5 to 1 to
> smear him and steal the election. Just to show you how much of a difference
> you can make, if we raise just $25,000 we can buy ads in a major
> battleground state market for a whole day. With $25,000 I can order an ad
> buy that puts our ads on a major network like ABC, CBS and NBC for a full
> day. What does this full day look like? For $25,000 I can buy ads that
> will show up on the morning news show, morning programs like Dr. Phil, the
> View, Regis, Oprah, the Price Is Right and others with a heavy female
> demographics � these are voters we need to sway! Yes, imagine using Oprah's
> very own show to defeat Obama! Help us do just that � Donate today � Go
> Here Now <http://www.townhallmail.com/t.do?id=1764293:6103606> In the
> evening I can then buy the 5PM and 6PM local news followed by entertainment
> programs like Xtra and Entertainment Tonight. We can then hit game programs
> like Jeopardy. We can also buy a major hit series like CSI, Desperate
> Housewives, Dancing with the Stars and ER. Fi nally, we can wrap up the
> night again buying ads on 10PM and 11PM the local news and the late night
> talk shows like Letterman and Leno. All of this for $25,000! You should

> are showing it works! Now, you can't donate $25,000. The maximum is $5000.
> You can donate that amount. But if just a 10 people donate $2500 today I

> run this schedule. If 100 people donate just $250 I can do this schedule.
> Get the picture? With you help we can have a dramatic effect on the election

> U.S. should not get amnest, should not get driver's licenses, should not get
> Social Security benefits, should not get automatic Medicaid healthcare cover
> and other government benefits. But Obama wants all of these things for
> illegals. Polling shows that when Democratic and Independent voters find

> Us Expose Obama's Radical Plans -- Go Here Now Imagine giving driver's
> licens es with radical Muslim terrorists still plotting to attack us. Obama
> does. Did you know that Mohamed Atta, the 9/11 ring leader, had a valid
> Florida driver's license? Did you know 13 of the 19 hijackers had obtained
> valid driver's licenses? Armed with these
> licenses, eight of the hijackers even registered to vote! Here is the
> shocking fact: Obama strongly supports giving illegal aliens in America
> driver's licenses. He said as much during two Democratic debates earlier
> this year. The head of Homeland Security said such thinking was dangerous
> for national security. Even Hillary Clinton backed away from Obama's
> radical driver's license plan. Obama's position is not a new one: We
> discovered that Obama has been a major proponent of driver's licenses for
> illegals since his days as an Illinois state senator. We have no doubt
> that, as president, Obama will also champion this ra dical plan. With Osama
> bin Laden still at large, with al-Qaida promising "spectacular" attacks on
> the U.S homeland, with the threat of them using weapons of mass destruction
> against our cities � biological, chemical, and nuclear � can we risk putting
> such a man in the Oval Office? Doesn't he remember what happened on 9/11?
> More than 3,000 Americans were murdered. Doesn't he want to prevent that
> from ever happening again? If he supports driver's licenses for illegals,
> the answer is clear. We need to inform millions of Americans about this man
> and his risky judgment. We are days away from our new TV ad exposing
> Obama's support for driver's licenses for illegals. But we need your help.
