Hi, all.
I am working on a 60 second radio spot for our local Democratic Party. The spot will run on our local radio stations which have a very conservative, rural listenership (is that a word?)
Spot is offered after the jump. I would appreciate any edits or feedback. We're set to record on Monday.
This year's election is different.
The usual political spin is not working. Why? Because all of us, regardless of political persuasion, are desperate for positive change.
The Democratic Party is proud to offer a slate of strong and principled candidates this year.
They want to finish the job they started of building a new high school for our children. They want to continue their commitment to provide better paying jobs and affordable housing in Watauga County. They want to take strong voices to Raleigh to bring home our fair share of road and education money. They want to take on the big drug companies to lower drug costs for those who are sick. They want to preserve and protect Social Security because it's the major source of income for 65% of us who receive it. They want to hold employers of illegal aliens accountable for using cheap labor at the expense of American jobs. And they want to find ways to lower the astronomical costs of health care for all Americans.
So you see. How we vote in Watauga County matters not only to us here but also to millions of other Americans. Americans just like all of us.
We are respectfully asking you to give us the chance to represent you. We promise we'll come through.
