Where The Hell Are Obama's TV Ads On Election Eve??? |
|
Ok, I've been watching MSNBC and CNN all day. The Wright ad, along with an ad with some guy saying Obama will potray 'weakness' to our enemies by destroying our military, etc.
Scare mongering worked for the Republicans as a last ditch tactic 4 years ago (remember 'Wolves'?), why aren't they battling these ads?
Its like an endless loop of "Obama is scary" ads. Normally I wouldn't care - but they are carpet bombing them and I see not a single Obama ad to offset them.
What am I missing?

the McCain strategy was the blanket the airwaves with ads in the last 48 hours, Obama's strategy was GOTV.

3. In Raleigh, they are countered nearly every time with the Bush rearview mirror face ads |
|
which are pretty hilarious. We did get one run of the Wright ad tonight.
TOO LITTLE TOO LATE!
VICTORY TOMORROW!

7. Where are you? The "Look Behind You" ads are on here in CO |
|
We're a "battleground state" though. We get them all. I agree McCain/RNC are carpet bombing tonight with the Rev. Wright/Scary Black Man ads. I can't wait till this is over.

It's really annoying. Obama/other Dems are running ads too though.

9. How many American voters do you think spend all day watching MSNBC and CNN? |
|
In Wisconsin I have seen plenty of ads by Obama. Those paying attention to the anti Obama are never going to vote for him anyways.

11. Wheres all those "$100's of millions" worth of Dem supporting third party ads? |
|
Third party groups aligned with the GOP launched an all out TV assault the last couple of days before the vote, wheres the Democratic response?

12. He had a nice long one here in Los Angeles an hour or so ago. |
|
Sitting right in front of the camera talking about specifics of his plans. Excellent summation of everything. It ran at least 60 seconds. Maybe two minutes.

14. Here in Wisconsin I haven't seen any Obama ads tonight....BUT |
|
I got my first Obama robocall. Very positive message straight from Barack about improving the economy. Huge difference from the 30+ disgusting, slanderous, McCain robocalls I've received since I moved back in with the folks for the week to help with canvassing here (figured Illinois doesn't need my help as much).
