Thanks to you, we’re putting a new ad on the air in Indiana and North
Carolina responding to Senator Clinton’s attacks ahead of next Tuesday’s
primary.

It’s only possible because of the outpouring of support we received from
supporters like you before tonight’s financial reporting deadline.

The topic is a pressing issue in the race right now: how to solve the
energy crisis and get gas prices under control.

The ad shows Barack at his best, cutting through the Washington gimmicks
and talking about real solutions.

I hope you take a look now:

Both Senator McCain and Senator Clinton have demanded that we suspend
the gas tax, which would not lower gas prices — experts say it’s likely
to increase the amount that oil companies charge for gas.

Economists on both the Democratic and Republican sides have called the
McCain-Clinton proposal a “gimmick” and “pointless.” Clinton aides even bragged
to the Washington Post that the plan is just a political ploy to help their
candidate sound like she’s against Big Oil.

Watch the ad that you helped air and see how Barack addresses this important
issue:

Thanks for helping us share this important issue with the voters of Indiana
and North Carolina.
