Thanks in large part to your efforts, the latest ad, "Wink," has gotten more than 11,000 views in a bit over three days, the first of any of my vids to break 10K.
The speed of its spread suggests it has the capacity to go much farther, something many here have cheered on.
So, I'm here with hat in hand, beggin' for yer clicks.
It's Monday, beginning of another week where millions of Americans will stare at screens, messaging friends, doing sudokus, watching adorable cats and a thousand other things they hope their bosses don't find out about. I would like watching this ad to be one of those things:
It's short, polite and utterly vicious. So simple the least politically-aware viewer gets it. It is my belief that the ad can help in the job of crippling Mr. Romney's campaign permanently (so that we can get busy figuring out how to get the House back, and filibuster-proof the Senate).
This community has taken it this far.
Oh, I've been hounding a lot of comment sections, and certainly generous mentions from people like the fine Mr. Fallows have helped, but it has been mostly the reposting, tweeting, emailing and general enthusiasm of you guys that's propelled the ad to the edge of the media gravity well.
Can I ask for one more good push? A few more link shares, a couple re-tweets, whatever you can spare?
Obama's team gave the Romney machine a serious roundhouse blow this weekend with the "Firms" ad. I'd love to give him a "Wink" as he hits the mat.
Update: As of the noon refresh, the YT counter's added 2K+, indicating a lot more will be waiting come evening. Thank you, all!
