Kasich to launch first statewide TV ad on Monday: “New Day”
Republican challenger John Kasich is set to launch the first statewide TV ad of his campaign on Monday, Aug. 9, Kasich told supporters in an e-mail on Sunday.
The ad, “New Day”, is set at the DHL facility in Wilmington in Clinton County, site of a major loss of Ohio jobs. Kasich, running against Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland, tells a small group of listeners that he grew up in a blue-collar town and that his father carried mail. The campaign, he tells them, is about jobs.
The ad does not mention Strickland by name but says that the state has lost 400,000 jobs.
“My message to the people here is the sun is going to come up again. Together we push and pull. We get it done,” Kasich says in the 30-second ad.
Heres’ the ad:
Strickland campaign spokeswoman Lis Smith said in an e-mail that “only one candidate in this race can be trusted to create jobs here in Ohio and it’s not the Congressman from Wall St.”
Kasich, a former Columbus-area U.S. House member, also worked as a managing director for Lehman Brothers.
