I have posted on the value of the, How, before. How to beat them in messaging. Our quality can trump their quantity every time if there is drop-dead gorgeous imagination involved. Behold the simplicity, the power. This lady, in all honesty, blew me away today and I never knew she existed.
I have been wracking my poor old brain for months trying to figure out how to get people to the polls, how to inspire. Lord knows the boots on the ground are killing themselves out there. They deserve every advantage we can give them.
The best I've come up with is better ads. Ads that are Super bowl quality without the price tag. Hollywood movie trailer. I'm talking soap opera and DWTS in 15 to 60 seconds that won't be muted or changed after 3 showings. Stories that will inflame and get people off the couch and out the door, be they drama or snark. TheFatLadySings,(Author of this diary)is exhibit A. Hope she doesn't mind.
If too much leisurely TV watching is a problem: maybe it can be a solution.
Know any writers? Know any body that knows any writers? Know Kevin Bacon? Any thing would help.
This is not about me. It's about something brand new. Angie in WA State was there. So were OleHippieChick, ichibon, La Feminista, jlms qkw, blueyedace2, ExpatGirl, Jeff W and 3 rock. I really, really hope that you will check this out. IMHO, it's exceptional.
