Ohio again will be the key swing state in this election - and the Ohio Democratic Party and Obama for Ohio are working day and night to turn this state blue. The key issue in Ohio is the economy. Ohio has been devastated by the last eight years of failed Republican policy. The effects of these GOP failures are highlighted in our newly release radio and TV ads.
The Ohio Democratic Party will release a series of five radio ads tomorrow morning throughout Ohio entitled "Not Numbers." The new series of radio ads will highlight the economic devastation left in the wake of the 1,087 factories and companies in Ohio that shut down or had mass layoffs under George W. Bush, costing more than 180,000 Ohio jobs. John McCain describes these years as a time of "great progress" for the economy.
The radio ads follow yesterday's release of our new TV ad - which was posted on MyDD here. The TV ad is currently airing across Ohio.
Five versions of the ad will be playing in different regions of the state. These 60-second regional specific radio spots paint regional pictures of the pain inflicted by job loss.
-In Northeast Ohio alone, 69,000 workers have lost their jobs since George Bush took office.
-In Northwest Ohio alone, 33,000 workers have lost their jobs since George Bush took office.
-In Central Ohio alone, 24,000 workers have lost their jobs since George Bush took office.
-In Southeast Ohio alone 12,000 workers have lost their jobs since George Bush took office.
-In Southwest Ohio alone, 39,000 workers have lost their jobs since George Bush took office.

Here is the statewide version of the ad script is:
Ohio has been devastated by Washington Republicans and their failed economic policies. Since George Bush took office, Ohio and its families have suffered.1,087 factories and companies have shut down or endured mass layoffs. 1,087! Nearly three companies each week...for eight straight years. Not just numbers. Real people. Our families, neighbors...hurting.
Ohio deserves better. Democrats will bring the change Ohio needs. Democrats share your values, and will stand up for jobs that support our families, our churches, and our communities.This year, Vote Democratic.
