Places I don't think Kerry is going to spend much time in
I don't think Kerry is going to spend much time or money in states like NC and GA. We're going to see a different type of campaign this time. There is no point spending money in these states that have no chance of becoming Blue. The only money that will be spent in these states are for the Close Senate battles. The only places I think will get money and attention are ARK, LA, and FL. And maybe and thats a big maybe South Carolina. Look for Kerry to spend his time and MOney in the Midwest, Penn, WV, NH, and places in the SouthWest. There is no point in trying to fight hard for the South. They won't vote for a person who doesn't talk like them.

1. I'm in GA
and I'm surprised at the number of Bush ads I am seeing. I thought he didn't have to worry about GA?

Or are they carpet bombing the US with their ads, since they have so much money to do so?

On the otherhand, I haven't seen any Kerry ads, but we still have a long way to go until the general election, and he doesn't have money to burn like Bush.

Maybe Kerry should rethink his strategy in the south?

2. Its a losing battle
those folks vote on idealogy. And they just aren't going to vote for someone they consider a northern liberal. He has to adopt a strategy that will work. Clinton couldn't even win those states.

3. * is already bombarding Arkansas
with his nauseous bile.

It looks like RoveCo thinks the state is in play despite the R gov.

Ugh!

5. I know and I'm getting
sick of it already. I have to lunge for the remote to mute it fast enough. These ads are misleading and extremely damaging to Kerry, only because it paints Bush as what these people want.
