(I wonder if that tune will make it on iTunes.. - promoted by Karl-Thomas Musselman)
My campaign has released the first campaign commercial of the 2008 general election season in House District 64.
We wanted to stand out from the crowd to publicize the campaign and this ad is a great beginning. The idea of the ad harkens back to the late Senator Paul Wellstone and his ads asking why his opponent at the time was never seen by his constituents. In this case, we want everyone to sing 'Where is Myra?' over and over in their heads while they wonder why their State Representative is rarely anywhere to be seen in District 64.
The concept of the commercial was the idea of J-Michael Cabosky and Michael Brown, new residents of the district, who recently moved their media production company to Denton from Beverly Hills. "I definitely wanted to do something fun and catchy for John's campaign to help voters remember his message," said Cabosky. "As a political junkie, my goal is to create a conversation throughout North Texas races. Residents deserve to find out about the candidates, and what better way then internet political advertising."
District 64 includes the cities and communities of Denton, Corinth, Shady Shores, Lake Dallas, Hickory Creek, Lakewood Village, Oak Point, Lincoln Park, Paloma Creek South, Little Elm, and The Colony.
Thank you to the 10,845 people who voted for me in the Democratic Primary. Only 8,249 voted for Myra in the GOP primary. Maybe because they couldn't find her.
