I'm convinced from this and previous linked discussions that these ads are a bad idea, for all the reasons cited...Marks may be a "turncoat", or simply a "tin ear"...or perhaps his website was hacked with bogus ads? But in any case, if these ads are as bad as you all say they are, it will not only cause a backlash for the Bush/Cheney campaign, but also on all the other 527-type groups...the MSM will get back on their soapbox telling W to "call off" these people (never mind that would be illegal) and trumpeting that "you can't trust these (conservative) 527's like MoveOnForAmerica and the (totally legitimate) SBVfT"...
Most unhelpful. Even giving Marks the benefit of the doubt, he needs a reality check...this is one 527 group the "old media" will certainly give plenty of coverage to...
