Does 2010 have you down? Concerned over the decline in societal mores and government aiding and abetting that shove over the cliff? Our friends at CatholicVote.org produced a video giving us real reason for hope. It is a product of thousands of responses to its request for suggestions on what happened this year to give reason for hope in the future. It is, as usual with CatholicVote.org, an inspiring piece. We hope you enjoy it and provide us your feedback. Do you agree with the 10 reasons? What gives you hope for 2011 and beyond?

The Top 10 reasons for hope are . . . and none of them have to do with social justice.

CatholicVote.org late last week announced that its long-awaited Web site overhaul is complete. But in addition, as part of its two-year anniversary celebration, it released its latest commercial, “The Dream 2010,” which we gladly share below. Catholic Vote reports that within 72 hours of its release it had 30,000 views. Let us know what you think of it.

Catholic Vote, recognized for its creative, well produced and thought-provoking ads, promises more of the same, especially as election time draws near, and Catholics are called to make informed decisions as to who should represent us in government. While this ad doesn’t strike me as up to the standards of its past work, that is a pretty high standard. I look forward to seeing its next releases.

CatholicVote.org celebrates its two-year anniversary with a new Web site and another glossy, attention-grabbing ad.
