Two New Ads (videos)


"Only One"--video (01:00) from Richardson4President:
The ad details a hostage situation in Iraq that then-Congressman Richardson was called upon to defuse. In the 60-second spot, Bill Barloon, the late David Daliberti, and his wife Kathy Daliberti praise Richardson for obtaining the release of the two men from Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein in July 1995.

"Conventional"--video (00:30) from TPM's Election Central:
Barack Obama is up with a new ad in New Hampshire -- his third in the state -- that continues making the case against Hillary as bound up in conventional thinking about foreign policy and makes the case for himself as the race's only true change agent.

"When we break out of the conventional thinking and we start reaching out to friend and foe alike, then I am absolutely convinced that we can restore America's leadership in the world," Obama says to a roomful of nodding voters. Hillary is also in favor of negotiating with leaders of hostile nations, though the two differ on the question of whether a President should commit to personally meeting with them without preconditions.
