Good.
I hope many liberals bite off their tongues.
Thanks.
Let me guess. Those stuck in the muds will say Iraq had no WMD's, was not associated with al Queda yada yada. Same old routine they have been monotonously repeating for 3 years. i don't think people vote the past. I want to know what a candidate sees in the future.
10 cents out of 50 dollars will actually go to air time.
Excellent 'toon. Relevant then, relevant tomorrow.
Thanks for the reminder!!!
I had this on the back of my car (Up here in Massachusetts) for 9 months, 3 months before the election and 6 months afterwards. Got away with only a small dent on my door..."
Thanks, Doug. That's exactly the point. The reason the Swifties got such traction was due to the ads they ran against Kerry on '04. Prior to those ads, they had little if any traction. Meaning their efforts were not getting into the living rooms of those who needed to hear their message. THEY HAD TO BUY THE AIR TIME THEMSELVES. AND SO DOES BOOT MURTHA / VETS FOR THE TRUTH.
It is not enough to make waves through the Internet. Politics is still 'fought' through messages in the newspapers, on the radio and on tv. Internet is used to stir up the troops (preach to the choir) BUT IT DOES NOT REACH THE ACTUAL VOTERS IN ANY LARGE DEGREE.
Main stream media knows this. That is why they will not print or air our message.... only the liberals' gets air time.
I do not mean to be unduly harsh here. But crass as it is, money is needed in large amounts to counter what MoveOn.Org is going to do.
Well for pity's sake, don't waste your money running the ad in August! Half, or more, of the area is on vacation, followed by a good two weeks of "back to school" stuff. It'll be at least mid-September before an "ad" will be acceptable to the locals. ;)
Guess *someone* forgot to clue Moveon.org in as to Murtha's views on "carpetbaggers" interfering in the campaign???
SHEESH! It's just no fun when you can't even hand them the rope.
Anyone wishing to be added to the IREY/Murtha ping list let me know!
They have no power. Irey is going to win!
I donated again the other day! Haven't received word if it was received.
Well, seeing how "successful" Moveon.org has been over the last election cycles, I would think it means little.
I agree Irey and her support teams need lotsa cash. That is a reality of politics, regardless of your opponent. But having Moveon.org and Code Pink and Michael Moore supporting Murtha is a HUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGEEEEEE advantage for Irey.
"I do not mean to be unduly harsh here."
oops! Neither did I. :) I merely meant that when one has a limited amount of funds to spend, said funds should be spent in a manner that will provide the widest exposure for the amount spent. :)
As for Moveon? Please, please, spend your monies on an ad that will fly in CA, but will be deemed "offensive" by local mores and values. ;)
anyone have any poll #'s for irey/murtha?
VFTT and Boot Murtha have stepped up to the plate to assist Diana in her quest for the Congressional seat. They both need our support.
Anyone wishing to be added to the IREY/Murtha ping list let me know!
Hey! How ya doing? It would be great if Boot Murtha came out with something like that for your window.
ROTFLOL!!!
