    http://newsmax.com/archives/ic/2004/3/6/121052.shtml Well isn't this intresting. The "objective news media" supposed 9-11 surviors protesting Bush's ads are actually anti-war stooges financed by John Kerry's wife. Please take a moment and vist the New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, CBS, NBC and ABC etc to email the Omsbudsman, the Publisher, the News Editor and demand to know why they allowed clearly partisan advocates of Kerry's Presidential Campaign were presented on their "News" programs with no reference to their ties to the Kerry camp. We absolutely must demand the "News Media" be held accountable for their free advertising for the Kerry camp.

    http://www.georgewbush.com/tvads/ Here is a link to the 1st three Bush Re-election ads. As expected the DNC directed its "Objective News Media" mouthpieces at CNN, NBC, CBS and ABC to generate phoney hysteria about these ads. Compared to the demogagery and lies spread by the Kerry Campaign, Moveon.org and the DNC about Bush for the last 6 months, this is probably the mildest sets of ads that have run so far this political season. Please email this link to every person on you email contact list. We need to get as many people as possible to see these ads. They are...

    Courtney gaining on Simmons (Storrs-AP, Nov. 3, 2002 6:50 PM) _ A new University of Connecticut poll shows that Rob Simmons' lead over Joe Courtney in the Second Congressional District is down to five percentage points. UConn's Center for Survey Research and Analysis says Simmons -- the incumbent Republican -- holds a 46 percent to 41 percent lead among likely voters over Courtney, the Democratic challenger. Thirteen percent of voters are undecided. Simmons' five-point lead is equal to the poll's margin of error. Simmons held a 22-point lead two months ago. Back then, Simmons led 46 percent to 24 percent,...

The survey of likely voters found Johnson leading 50 percent to 41 percent, with 9 percent of respondents saying they were undecided.

    Johnson maintains 17-point lead in UConn poll (New Haven-AP Nov. 1, 2002 10:00 AM) _ A new poll finds Congresswoman Nancy Johnson holding steady with a 17-point lead over Congressman Jim Maloney for the Fifth District. Today's University of Connecticut poll is nearly identical to a poll three weeks ago, where Johnson had a 16-point lead among likely voters. About 53 percent of those polled favored Johnson, compared with 36 percent for Maloney. Ten percent remain undecided. Poll director David Yalof says Johnson has a strong lead and it seems unlikely that Maloney will make such a huge comeback, with...

    Hartford Courant ^ | 10/9/02 | Rinker Buck
    A barrage of negative ads by both candidates in the contentious 5th District congressional race has opened up a 16-point lead for Republican U.S. Rep. Nancy Johnson while dramatically eroding Democratic U.S. Rep. James Maloney's natural base among registered Democrats, according to a new poll. These results - from a University of Connecticut poll conducted Oct. 2-6 - indicate that Republican and Democratic voters are responding quite differently to negative appeals by the candidates. They also suggest that the overriding national issue of a war with Iraq is blunting Maloney's ability to reach voters with a traditional Democratic appeal about...

    Gekas On the Ropes? By Lauren W. Whittington At a closed-door meeting Tuesday, National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Tom Davis (Va.) told party leaders that Rep. George Gekas is the only GOP incumbent currently trailing in tracking polls, sparking efforts to aid the endangered Pennsylvanian in his race against Rep. Tim Holden (D). The 72-year-old Gekas, facing his first serious re-election challenge in two decades, is battling Holden, 45, in a race set up by redistricting. Davis' assessment was backed up by a recently conducted Democratic poll that showed Gekas trailing Holden by 10 points. The survey, conducted Sept. 19-21...
