Obama Releases Second TV Ad in Granite State

ABC News’ Sunlen Miller reports: Following his seventeenth visit to New Hampshire where he laid out an energy policy to reduce global warming, Senator Obama has released his second TV ad in the state.

The thirty second ad, "Quiet," pledges that "we can’t just tell people what they want to hear, we need to tell them what they need to hear."

The Senator recalls the story where he went to Detroit instead of in front of a more friendly audience, such as environmentalists, to call for increased fuel efficiency standards, "Now, I have to admit, the room got kind of quiet."

The ad addresses the US dependence of foreign oil, "I don’t accept that we should be still be sending eight hundred million dollars a day, part to hostile nations because of our addition to foreign oil," Obama states, "And at the bargain we’re melting the polar ice caps."

The TV ad will begin running in New Hampshire on Thursday.

A man of principal…it takes guts and strength to tell people to their face what they need to know…
Unlike some people we know who will say different things in front of different audiences
