The RNC is using Hillary Clinton in a new robocall.
NEW YORK (CNN) – The Republican National Committee is using Hillary Clinton’s past criticism of Barack Obama to plant seeds of doubt in the minds of undecided voters in the final hours of the presidential campaign. The RNC will begin an automated telephone campaign Sunday targeting millions of voters in key states that supported Clinton in the Democratic presidential primary or have a large concentration of blue collar voters, a Republican official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, tells CNN. The official was not able to specify which states, but added: keep an eye on Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indiana. Listen: RNC uses Clinton in new robocall Full script: “I am calling for John McCain and the RNC. Listen to what Hillary Clinton had to say about John McCain and Barack Obama: ‘In the White House there is no time for speeches and on-the-job training. Senator McCain will bring a lifetime of experience to the campaign and Senator Obama will bring a speech that he gave in 2002. I think that is a significant difference.’ This call was paid for by the Republican National Committee at 866-558-5591 and authorized by McCain-Palin 2008.” Filed under: Barack Obama Hillary Clinton John McCain
