Shea-Porter to begin airing first TV ad
By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com ReporterU.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter (D-Rochester) is set to launch her first television ad in her re-election campaign.
The ad, which was announced on Shea-Porter's Daily Kos diary page, will begin airing on Thursday and focuses on her efforts to promote health care for veterans. The ad also features a cameo from her mother.
"That's my mother, a Republican for 83 years, joining me on camera to remind people that caring for our veterans is not a partisan issue but a national priority," Shea-Porter wrote on Daily Kos. "I am using my seat on the Armed Services Committee to fight for better veterans care and I will not rest until NH veterans have the same access to care as other veterans in America."
Shea-Porter's ad can be viewed below.

Quote of the Day
“In this era of crisis, it is important that all Americans step up in service to our country. In these next five years, the leading national issues will surely be the creation of new jobs, the economy, finance and financial regulation, energy, the environment, infrastructure and foreign policy,” Bestani said in a press release. “I have been privileged to have had a thirty-five year career which has given me high level experience in each of these complex fields. I think I would be remiss if I did not come forward and once again offer to serve our country.”
