McCain and GOP flooding my TV market with ads
I have been laid up and watched TV nearly 24/7 for 4 days now. (Yikes! This is day 5!) And on nearly every commercial break there is a McCain ad. I am guessing his ads outnumber Obama's 2 to 1.

And the ads are especially nasty.

Anyhow, that might explain why MO is still so up in the air.

I also think a political ad that shows your opponent and his name and NOT your picture or name is pretty dumb. Way too many local ads like that. This is a very nasty campaign season.

1. At least 3 McCain robocalls per evening here in SE Wisconsin
I have no idea what they say because I simply set the phone on the table and walk away, hoping that they have a limited number of calls that can be played simultaneously.

4. No
They just aren't calling this time. We had some calls before the August primary but we haven't received any this time.
