2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe Democratic candidates running for office should be in a studio with a TV
in the background showing those awful ads and talk directly to TV audience and tell the people who are paying for the ads and what they want to do with the country. Billionaires who want to do away with all social programs, social security, medicare etc, more pollution, tax cuts for them.
And then tell the audience exactly what they stand for. Protecting social security, medicare, reasonable regulations on industry so you water, or air doesn't harm you. Good public schools and affordable medical care even stress you'd like medicare for all, Rebuild the infratsturce instead of giving tax cuts to people who don't need them. Talk about issues that affect everyday working Americans. Being up front and honest instead of deceitful like these billionaires who hid behind their money.
Of course the Koch's don't realize that people will start getting tired of these lying commercials and start getting suspicions as to their motives. My Mother in law who lives in Arizona said the commercials got so bad in 2012 she turned off the TV in disgust.

(2,335 posts)Dems overall have mediocre media consultants. And I think Wasserman Shultz is a bad leader
Every Dem ad from top to bottom should end with
"I approve this message and never forget the GOP and it's surrogates lie to protect the super rich all the time at your expense, always" .....
