Bush-Cheney Set to Roll Out Ads

The Bush-Cheney campaign is set to air its first set of TV ads Thursday, two days after it became a virtual certainty that Sen. John Kerry would be the Democratic nominee. The campaign ads place President Bush in the context of the events of Sept. 11 and the ensuing efforts to combat terrorism. Hear NPR's Robert Siegel and NPR's Don Gonyea.
