Obama-Pelosi government healthcare takeover: LAV launches TV-ad urging Mollohan to vote "No"

LAV launches Heavy TV-Ad Blitz – 500 GRPs – in Clarksburg-Weston, Wheeling-Steubenville Markets

U.S. Congressman Allan Mollohan is urged to vote "No" on the Obama-Pelosi government takeover of healthcare, in a major TV-ad campaign launched today by the League of American Voters (USALeague.com).

The ads will run in the Charleston-Huntington and Bluefield-Beckley media markets, a 500 GRP buy.

"Congressman Mollohan, if you think you've got trouble now back home in your district, cast the deciding vote for Obamacare," said Bob Adams, executive director for the League of American Voters, and a West Virginia resident.  "If you want to protect seniors from $500 billion in Medicare cuts, vote 'No'.  If you want to stop job-killing tax increases on working families in the midst of the worst recession since the Great Depression, vote 'No'."

The script for the TV-ad, called "Stop Them Now Mollohan!" reads:
