Script For "Riesgo" (TV) -- Spanish

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: Los expertos predicen que los nuevos impuestos y mandato para un seguro de salud obligatorio de Obama y sus aliados liberales del Congreso eliminarian empleos.

Si tienes un negocio pequeno o trabajas para uno, sabes, que mas impuestos significa menos empleos, menos dinero en nuestros bolsillos y menos oportunidades.

Y quien va a contratar con tantos impuestos! Obama y los liberales del Congreso. Un riesgo para los empleos y los negocios pequenos.

JOHN MCCAIN [v/o]: I'm John McCain, and I approve this message.
