Hatch is going to take a month off from advertising????

I heard this on the local news earlier. He told the reporter that he was going to give people a break from all the negative ads they were being inundated with. I was gobsmacked. That is essentially going silent on his part during the month before the election. That makes no sense.

that is what he said he would do from the start anyway. He said he never wanted to go negative.

PPP now has Hatch down 14 points. I would like to think they are planning some great 9th inning play, rather than a sign of giving up.
