It was so familiar, but startling nonetheless: Gov. Jeb Bush misleading the public to help his brother win the critical state of Florida. But this time he's not getting away with it, because LCV is firing back.
Gov. Bush claimed that John Kerry was FOR oil drilling off the coast of Florida -- even though Kerry has a crystal clear record against it. In reality, the governor's brother, President Bush, is the one who opened up that possibility. Unless we correct the record, LOUDLY, the public is going to believe this preposterous idea.
So starting today, LCV is running this hard hitting TV ad in Florida. We can't keep it on the air without your support.
Please watch the ad, then support this effort so that undecided voters in Florida don't believe the Bush Brothers' spin -- and so that one of the best environmentalists in public life, John Kerry, doesn't have his record twisted.
Remember, only 537 votes made the difference in Florida in 2000. That's why LCV is running an aggressive door-to-door campaign in the state this year. And that's why we need to get this information to Florida voters before they begin to believe the falsehoods being told about John Kerry.
Please, watch the ad, then help us get this information to Florida voters.
Things are going to be different in Florida this time--We're fighting back!
