Script of "Ethanol" (TV)
BILL CHASE: Ethanol means another market for our corn. It means jobs for our people. It means less dependence on foreign oil.
(Text on screen: Wolsey, SD)
LARRY BIRGEN: Senator Johnson was instrumental in getting the renewable fuel standard put in the energy bill, which doubled the amount of ethanol use in this country.
(Text on screen: Beresford, SD)
BILL CHASE: It's terribly important for a small state like South Dakota to have someone in Washington with the clout and the respect that Tim has.
LARRY BIRGEN: Tim Johnson has the respect and seniority in Washington to deliver for South Dakota farmers and ranchers.
TIM JOHNSON: I'm Tim Johnson, and I approve this ad.
