AdWatch: Never waver to repeal ObamaCare & protect freedom

The Osborn for Senate campaign today released the following statement concerning the campaign's new television advertisement: "The next Senator from Nebraska will be tested while in Washington and there is only one candidate who has proven he will never waver. Only Shane Osborn will stand up every single day for the conservative values of Nebraska voters, from standing with Nebraskans against ObamaCare since 2009 to fighting against Dodd-Frank"

Ad script:

Voiceover: In a crude concrete building, Navy pilot Shane Osborn endured Chinese interrogation for 12 days. He never wavered.

Shane Osborn: Every candidate says the right things. Then, under pressure, they fold and they fail. We need new leaders. Conservatives strong enough to act, not just talk. That's the only way to repeal ObamaCare and protect our freedom. I'm Shane Osborn and I approve this message. I won't let you down.

Repeal ObamaCare; it's government intrusion into free market

From farm and health care policy to regulations impacting the banking and finance, Nebraska businesses face a growing burden of over-regulation. Obamacare represents the single greatest government intrusion into the free market. Shane supports the repeal of Obamacare, replacing it with a policy that restores decision-making to the families and medical providers. As U.S. Senator, Shane will advocate for a return to common sense practices so that business can thrive.

Propose better options, then repeal ObamaCare

Osborn said he believes ObamaCare, the health care reform law, should be repealed, but Republicans should bear the obligation of proposing a better option. "Republicans can't be a no-party," he said.
