Jody
Yang Chen
Richard Martin
Christopher Turman
West Virginia
Shelly Moore CapitoOf course, here's the candidate, Christopher Turman, explaining why he is running for office in West Virginia.  He also slams, oh, "slams"... Yang Chen
He slams his opponent, a Republican woman named Shelly Moore Capito by saying that she was only elected on the coattails of President Bush.
Exactly!  Let's first hear Turman use the phrase "to ride on someone's coattails."
And this event is my first event and this is the first time I'm going to say publicly why I am running.  In 2000 George Bush won the White House by winning West Virginia.  And in 2004 he is going to lose the White House by losing West Virginia.  And Shelly Moore Capito who came in on his coattails is going to go home with him.
Riding someone's coattails to the top is common in politics.  Coattail is spelled C-O-A-T-T-A-I-L.
Oh, we spoke at a fundraiser for the candidate.
Well, we won't talk about it today.  But, Yang Chen, if you want to pursue your dream of running for office someday, you'll have to know about fundraising.  You could run to be the mayor of ... Happyville!
Yang Chen!  Yang Chen, wake up and smell the coffee. You're not running for mayor of Happyville. You're the host of American Cafe.  Now, will you say goodbye to everyone.
Vote for Yang Chen!
