Run tv ads saying "Hey, the economy is pretty good!" Do you think that is a wise use of campaign money a year before the elections?

Sure, why not. I would venture to say most of us have Republican friends who are holding back donations because of the way the news isn't being diseminated.

I would guess as the good news spreads, so will the donations go up.

Since the MSM spoon feeds you their lies you assume it's the GOPs fault. That's dumb.

I do not assume anything, as I'm sure you know what happens when you assume.... Now THAT's dumb!

The media lies about the economy. They lie about the polls they fund for suckers who read their lies. It doesn't really change public opinion.

I don't care what the poll numbers are a year from election. I care about results on election day. So far GWB and the GOP has delivered in 2000 2002 and 2004.

And I think spending money on ads today to claim the economy is good is a terrible idea. Those who are effected by the good economy know they have more money, and telling people the economy is good when they have less money is a waste of time and resources a full year before the voters can vote for anyone.

Democrats Losing Race For Funds Under Dean Nov 12 2005

Now, the latest financial numbers are prompting new doubts. From January through September, the Republican National Committee raised $81.5 million, with $34 million remaining in the bank. The Democratic National Committee, by contrast, showed $42 million raised and $6.8 million in the bank.

NRO - The Buzz 06/17/2005

The Republican National Committee Chair Ken Mehlman announced today the RNC has raised $52.9 million through the first five months of 2005, a record for a non-presidential election year. Mehlman and the RNC raised $10.3 million last month alone.

Somehow we will get by without you.
