Capitol Alert

The latest on California politics and government

Sen. Tom McClintock has released his second radio ad of his congressional campaign -- one in which he goes on the offensive against Rep. Doug Ose, who he says "votes like a liberal Democrat."

You can listen to the ad on McClintock's "Best Man" ad on his Web site.

See the full transcript below:

ANNOUNCER: We don’t need another Republican that votes like a liberal Democrat. Doug Ose voted for the biggest expansion of federal spending in 40 years. He even voted to give social security benefits to illegal aliens.

Now Ose is trying to hide his own liberal voting record – by smearing Tom McClintock. Yes, there is a real difference between our candidates for Congress – Tom McClintock is a proven conservative - and Doug Ose is just too liberal for our district.

TM: Folks, our country is at stake with this election. We’ve got to defend our borders, stop pork-barrel spending, restore freedom – for ourselves and for our economy.

ANNOUNCER: For two decades, Tom McClintock has led the conservative fight in California. He’s fought to cut taxes and spending, secure our border and defend our rights as citizens.

TM: Ronald Reagan was right: Our future depends on restoring our fundamental American values.

ANNOUNCER: Tom McClintock – it’s time to send our best man to Congress.

TM: I’m Tom McClintock, and I approved this message.

ANNOUNCER: Paid for by McClintock for Congress.
