Charlie Wilson Country Stylin'


staff - Posted on 13 April 2006

Charlie Wilson (OH-06) has a radio ad urging folks to write him in. It's a real country ditty you gotta listen to.

The Second of May is election Day,
Charlie Wilson want to be our congressman
But a technicality is keeping Charlie off the ballot
So now we're gonna have to write him in

Ted Strickland is backing Charlie Wilson
He's he's the Democratic we need in DC
So Ted's askin' you to write Charlie in
'Cause Charlie wilson will stand up for you and me

Republicans attack him left and right
But Charlie wont back down from a fight
Oh George bush will feel the pain
When in write in Charlie's name

Charlie Wilson will fight you you and me

Yeeehaww. Classic.

I know, those poor uneducated hicks down there like Country music... so let's make a really jingoistic ad that only a DC consultant would not see as patronizing.
Thought it was fun.
resident of the 6th CD, and country music fan I thought it was piss poor. I suppose next Charlie will go hunting with Strickland and wear a brand new Carhartt... Ops, wait, strike that... already been done.
 . . . one of my best buddies wears a Carhartt 24/7 . . . my question is . . . what is he to wear after Memorial Day?  A white Carhartt?
ok, I can't... I hope Charlie Gets with the program and starts talking about the important things to the people of the 6th CD... like Trade.
Lenough talk about trade!
Let's work together to retire Ken Blackwell from politics
 . . . think they know what we want?

Missouri ? heh.

Trade - it's what everyone wants.

 . . . and some of us don't even have funny accents . . .

Would make me happy.
 . . . the money he just paid to a 'DCCC approved' consultant to produce, and media buyer to place, to be instead used on a local canvass to get absentee ballots cast for Sorry Charlie. 

in addition to ads...

 . . . they had 50 people to sign on the line for Charlie.

 

Let's all hold our breath together!

Your commentary is some of my favorite.  I enjoy your wit.  Just thought I'd say that...we need an award or something.

This years wittiest comment specialist in a supporting role goes to...Alan Harvard!

Nobody reads blogs. 
I don't care who you are.

My very own 'BloggerBrand' Pajamas and a weekend in your mom's basement with a cute little kitten?

you won't get off that easy...

 . . . beer and pie.
They know what's best for you.

come on harvard, their campaign manager chews tobacco and carries a baseball bat around the office! 

and they are canvassing.  grassroots solutions picked up the contract.  no, i'm not bitter.  not bitter at all.  (besides, how can we keep losing if we don't bring in the out of state consultants?!)  yeah, so i'm a little bitter.

Ahh yes . . . Sean Gagin . . . he hired me for my very first Campaign job . . .
that would be right around the time that Grassroots Solutions began the slow slide into ineptness.

harvards' a good man.  grassroots solutions, well, they're the competition, so blast away!

that Mr. Harvard up there knows I'm teasing him. If you look over the past threads you will notice that I've been a longtime fan and defender. Just giving him a hard time...
but i couldn't resist typing red enema.  just couldn't stop myself.  and, yeah, harvard can fend for himself like the good missouri hilljack he is (says the guy from mississippi)

 . . . Sean was the Statewide Iowa Field Dir for Bill Bradley for President when he and I worked together . . . via Missouri

'Grassroots Solutions' - we're not a lawn service.

How the F did they get 'DCCC Approved'?

that somehow sacrificing a chicken is involved.

i can choke some chickens if that's what it takes to get dccc/dscc approved!  wait, that didn't come out right.  damn it. 

I thought these campaign jingles died out about the time President Johnson released his "Daisy Girl" ad in 1964.

The ad itself isn't that great. I could write a better country jingle, but then again, I've been in about five alt-country bands. Message-wise, they should have emphasized in the chorus to write Charlie in. Otherwise, people won't remember what they need to do to elect this guy. Walk in, write in Charlie Wilson.
