Bush ads tout Kerry tax plan as risky to economy
Bush portrays John Kerry as a tax-raising threat in a 30 second television ad claiming Kerry would raise taxes by 900 billion and back a gas tax hike while contrasting Kerry’s Senate record with small business tax cuts. Kerry denies the charges and argues Bush bears fiscal blame for deficits. The campaign pits negative ads against pro Kerry messages as voters weigh jobs, taxes, and security.
