McCain's New Ad: God's Children
Dan Gilgoff
No, the ad's not about "values" issues. It's about immigration. In it, John McCain calls all immigrants--legal and illegal--"God's children." Is this Sam Brownback's hand at work? Brownback has for years talked about every person--including the unborn--as being a "sacred, unique child of a living God." McCain, for his part, has been a lot less prone to talk that way. Could Brownback be playing a stepped up role after all the criticism McCain received for his anemic religious outreach?

Although that might be the case- note that response was from a debate in June 2007- so if he played a role, it was simply in selecting something that McCain had already said.
