Rossi's first TV ad avoids specifics
Posted by David Postman
Republican Dino Rossi is up with his first TV commerical. It is 30 seconds. The campaign calls it “Better.” It doesn’t mention his opponent, Gov. Chris Gregoire, and includes no specifics other than saying he’s for better schools, fewer traffic jams and a better climate for small businesses.
It is designed to stress Rossi’s campaign themes of “change” and without criticizing Gregoire raises the issue of leadership with his closing line:
A governor must lead, I will.
The ad follows Gregoire’s first TV spot that began airing last week and talks about what she says she’s done to help the state economy.
