Why bother? KS is a gimmie.

3. It's got nothing to do with the election.
They're simply trying to discredit President Obama at this point.

4. It may have been aired by conservatives unaffiliated with McCain.
It serves no point this close to the election, but it keeps the masses propagandized.

19. They're running those ads here (west of Austin,TX) too. You may
think they're just preaching to the choir but.......our primaries here were huge in turnout,early voting in big too, so maybe it isn't a given for mcsame.

10. Repetition is a cardinal rule of propaganda.
They picked up that lesson from Hitler and his friends.

8. They're airing constantly on MSNBC in the Chicago area,
and I'm really, really pissed off because I want to have the election coverage on but now my 2 year old is running around the house screaming KKK due to hearing it on the tv so many times. I'd like to take the bastards who put this stupid commercial on and make them watch it over and over until they can't take it anymore.

22. I think it is overlap from ads targeting northwestern Indiana audiences
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 08:45 PM by NNN0LHI
I get a lot of Indiana state race ads here in northeastern Illinois.

11. Saw 4 on MSNBC in 2 hours
How do they have the money for this?

I haven't seen a single Obama ad on MSNBC for 12 hours at least.

14. I talked to a voter while phone banking today
while he was watching a Wright ad. He was livid at McCain, and said he'd just decided on Obama, right then during the ad. "How stupid does McCain think we are, some preacher screaming like preachers do...is the preacher running, hell no! All the problems this country has and he...." and so on.

So I don't think the ads are working. Sure not on that guy.
