37. very targeted refutation of Koch brothers ad

Mon Mar 24, 2014, 03:54 AM

Mar 2014

Here in Ohio when we kicked republican legislator butt in a special referendum to protect rights of municipal unions the ads like this one were aimed at those who lean republican. We did this in Ohio by using firemen and police, male authority figures republicans claim to support as spokesmen. This above ad takes a similar tack, using the dislike republican leaning citizens have for outside carpetbaggers as they are often called to tell them what to think and how to vote. Portraying the Koch brother interference as outsiders trying to tell locals what to believe is very damaging to those who want to fight Obamacare. This is very clever and will work. The producer of this ad is to be commended for his proactive actions and his political acumen.
