A Great Ken Buck Ad That Cannot Be Ignored

A reader writes in, raving about this ad for GOP Colorado Senate candidate Ken Buck, and I concur. It’s a basic, simple message that I think hits the sweet spot of appealing to conservatives and independents simultaneously.

“We protested when the government ran up trillions of dollars of debt. We sent e-mails when they nationalized health care. We asked them to get off the backs of small business so we could create jobs. We pleaded with our government to secure our border. And you know what? They heard us, and yet they ignored us. And folks, on Nov. 2, they will ignore us no more.”

I couldn't resist again posting here this video and lyrics because it is so relevant.

My cousin, no songwriter obviously, wrote this song and sang it with her friends. These are amateurs, tea partiers, who are unhappy with what's going on.

Here is the video and the lyrics.

Seniors speaking out; I guess it's time to shout, 'cause nobody's listenin' in Washington, D.C.
We e-mail, we call, we gather in the Mall.
Still nobody's listenin' in Washington, D.C.
Taxing folks beyond fair, cap and trade, Obamacare. And nobody's listenin' in Washington, D.C.

Czars, S.E.I.U. Are you asking, "Who?"
Still nobody's listenin' in Washington, D.C.
Congress, senators, too, the people versus you, 'cause nobody's listenin' in Washington, D.C.
Elections in November, we will all remember, that no-one was listenin' in Washington, D.C!
