Once again we have some great new material, targeted for one of the battlegrounds states. This time it is Florida, where Dan Tilson of Tilson Films, Inc. has been shooting a series of ads titled Elders for Obama. Here are the first four, with another two to follow:

Polls still show Obama ahead by only a slim margin in Florida. We all know the infamous history there when it comes to presidential elections, and we all know the games the other side will be playing come crunch time. With senior voters such a large, pivotal voting block, they’ll need special attention in the final days to counteract the Republican Fear, Smear and Voter Suppression operation. Our plan is to use our new ads to target undecided older White voters who are still "reachable" -- those who are fed up with the Economy, Iraq, and the ruins of Republican rule -- but who remain uncomfortable with Barack Obama.
We don’t have to tell you, time is short. And the McCain campaign is pouring resources into Florida because they still think they can pull it out, or have it pulled out for them. For us to be on the air one week before Election Day, at the very latest, we need at least $40,000 in funding by Monday, October 27th. Please donate anything you can to help, invite your friends to donate, and consider whether there are any wonderful progressives "with means" and "can-do" spirits out there that you know, or know how to reach out to for help. For more information on the Elders project and to view the films being edited into ads, visit the elders site. For more information on the production company and producer, visit tilson films. And please remember, if you’re in a sure-thing Blue state and want a great way to help win this thing, As Goes Florida, So Goes This Election.
DIGG this!
Please visit our website to see all of our campaigns, including Local Voices and Mamas for Obama.
Also, please be on the lookout tomorrow when I will release three new Local Voices ads, one each for Missouri, Nevada & Ohio. These three are the best in the series & I am extremely excited to share them with you then. You can see the work on Local Voices now on our site and on the Local Voices Blog, which has even more detail & background stories for each ad.
Thank you for your help,
