Local TV station in W. PA are running Rove's negative ads every 20
min. PA rejected the last candidates for governor when they started their campaigns by flooding negative ads. People got sick of it. The two candidates (Casey a Dem running against Rendell in the primary and Fisher (R) who ran against Rendell) never got back in it after Rendell lay low and answered with positive ads. These Bush* ads are "too much" because of the saturation. I sense that its turning people off. Its going to happen again in PA.

2. I hope people in PA come to their senses and run Santorum out
as well as his Chimperial Majesty. I lived in Pittsburgh for awhile and I really can't believe they will continue to support the bootlicking, fascist reich-wing Santorum.
I hope the Steelers kick some ass this year too!

3. Bush spent an "unprecedented" $41.8 million on television ads in March!
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A40573-2004Mar31.html

The Bush campaign, which this month has spent an unprecedented $41.8 million on television ads, many of them attacking Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.), has become increasingly frustrated by the ability of Kerry and such "independent" groups as MoveOn.org and the Media Fund to counter with nearly $20 million in ads.
