Script of "Right" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: In times of crisis, we need leaders who make the right choices.

Susan Collins stood with George Bush on the biggest issues.

Voting for the Iraq war.

The only senator from Maine to vote for all of President Bush's economic policies.

And Collins supported the Cheney energy bill, with billions in tax breaks for Big Oil.

(HR 6, 7/29/05; HR 6, 7/29/05)

How can we change the direction of the country if we keep electing people who have made the wrong choices for Maine?

It's time for a change.
