Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has a new TV ad, in his efforts to fight the Democratic recall campaign against him. This one takes on a friendly, conciliatory holiday greeting to the state.
The ad is mainly narrated by Walker’s wife, Tonette, as video is shown of the family helping out at a soup kitchen: “The holidays are a time for us to give thanks — and to reach out to those who are struggling. it’s a tough time for many families. But in Wisconsin, we have a long tradition of helping our neighbors. We’re grateful for the opportunity to serve the people of Wisconsin.
The ad then cuts to the Walker family in their living room: “In this season of peace, our hope is that we can put our differences aside, and move forward together.”
Walker himself then adds: “From our family to yours: Blessings of the season.”
Last week, the Dems announced that they had collected over 507,000 signatures in 30 days, getting very close to the legal threshold of just over 540,000 signatures in 60 days. They are also working towards a goal of 720,000 total, in order to have an absolute buffer against disqualification.
