They just ran a Jeremiah Wright ad in California
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 01:05 PM by dancingAlone
It was an in-your-face mean kind of ad and the first I've seen. It won't make a bit of difference here, the idiots. It's California. We never vote republican.

Unless they've been running this one all along and I just haven't seen it, I guess they're trying to come out hard today. It's all they've got, and it still ain't much.

Edit to type: Califffornia correctly.

17. I see them on MSNBC, during Rachael Maddow's show here in Illinois.
They've got to be national. McCain isn't spending a dime here.

2. It has nothing to do with the election.
They're simply attack President Obama now. They did they same crap with Clinton.

They're going for the 2010 elections.

18. I can only assume
they are throwing this out to anyone who may have missed it the first time around and hope, hope, hope it changes their vote.

9. Maybe they're only running the ad
in the states that can't be convinced of that. That he's a Muslim. So they're hitting those states with the next best thing? Good strategy, or would that be a tactic?

19. In SF?
:rofl:

It would have been more in their favor to just hand out that same money to the homeless. They may have actually picked up a few votes that way, and would have actually helped some people.

10. I saw it last night during the Colts/Patriots game, on my local NBC affiliate.
It's a bit too little too late, though, at this point, isn't it?

BTW, does an Obama win mean the Patriots are done, too?

How I'd love to see the look Belichick had on his face after he lost the Super Bowl repeated on McLame's face!
