New Clinton Ad References Pearl Harbor, Bin Laden

Hillary Clinton's campaign has released a new ad in Pennsylvania, "Kitchen," in which a famous line from Harry Truman is used to make the candidate's case.

"It's the toughest job in the world," an announcer says as the spot opens. Onscreen, a newspaper trumpets news of a stock market crash; black-and-white images of Pearl Harbor explosions follow. Then, more images: Gas shortages. The Berlin Wall. Osama Bin Laden. Hurricane Katrina.

"You need to be ready for anything," the announcer continues. "Especially now, with two wars, oil prices skyrocketing and an economy in crisis. Harry Truman said it best: 'If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.'"

The ad closes with the announcer asking, "Who do you think has what it takes?" That question is followed by video of Clinton.

Barack Obama's campaign also released two new ads today in North Carolina. "Billy" shows Obama talking to a group of people talking about the pharmaceutical industry.

"The pharmaceutical industry wrote into the prescription drug plan that Medicare could not negotiate with drug companies," he says. "And you know what? The chairman of the committee, who pushed the law through, went to work for the pharmaceutical industry making $2 million a year."

The other spot, "Turn it Off," shows Obama discussing education – and imploring parents to "turn off the TV."

"As President, I'll expand early childhood education," Obama says. "Recruit new teachers. And pay them better. But the truth is, government can't do it all. As parents we need to turn off the TV, read to our kids. Give them that thirst to learn."
