Script of "A Time For Bipartisanship" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: It's a time for bipartisanship. America faces a great threat to our financial system.

(Text on screen: "Wall Street drops at open"; "Can We Avert Financial Crisis?"; "Government Plans Financial Rescue")

In dealing with this crisis, Susan Collins has been guided by three principles: strong protections for taxpayers and homeowners, curbs on excessive executive pay and tough oversight.

While Susan works for a bipartisan solution, Tom Allen launched a new attack ad against her. That's not leadership.

Susan Collins: an independent voice for Maine.

SUSAN COLLINS [v/o]: I'm Susan Collins, and I approve this message.
