Script of "The Change" (TV)

GREG FISCHER [v/o]: What will our future look like? How will we build a better tomorrow?

(Text on screen: Fisher for U.S. Senate; Change you can trust)

GREG FISCHER [speaking with voters]: Let's face it: Our economy is being assaulted right now like never before.

GREG FISCHER [v/o]: Why is our health care in such bad shape? Why is our environment being spoiled?

GREG FISCHER [speaking with voters]: We need to bring our troops home safely.

(Text on screen: True Democrat)

GREG FISCHER [v/o]: We're not having a dialogue about what this means to the future of America.

GREG FISCHER [speaking with voters]: If there was ever a time to be outraged, it's now.

GREG FISCHER [v/o]: George Bush and Mitch McConnell haven’t served the needs of the people of Kentucky. But replacing Mitch McConnell with Bruce Lunsford is no change at all.

The easiest thing in the world is just to stay home, you know, but man, we need to change things.

I'm not a career politician. I'm an inventor, an entrepreneur and a problem-solver. I've spent my life here in Kentucky, raising a family, building businesses and creating thousands of American jobs, including good-paying union jobs.

But my greatest challenges and rewards have come through serving the needs of my community. Running for Senate is an extension of that spirit. I've never been a politician, but I have always been a public servant.

I'm Greg Fischer, and I approve this message.
