That's great. I expect networks like CNN for the sake of the country inform the voters of the sordid background of power hungry republican candidates.

4. Like the Kennedy and then Obama ad that used the people in Marion Indiana against Romney

Romney's company took over the town's only big business and then shipped the jobs overseas. The Kennedy ad likely cost Romney any chance of coming close to defeating Kennedy for the Senate seat. The Obama team took the same info and created a 2012 ad.

Here, many of these small business people told devastating stories of losing their businesses because they did not get paid for work done. This is something most people can relate to immediately.

7. These stories need to be repeated

These stories need to be repeated. How many times have the GOPsters claimed that they're the friends of the businessman? How many times have they claimed that their party helps small business? How many times have they portrayed their candidate as a successful (and implicitly) honest businessman and the media gives Donnie a free pass?
