CNN just announced they’re NOT going to accept the ad buy

The only reason they would refuse is that they think it hurts B Hussein Obama's chances in the election.

It will hurt Obama. The more we see of this Muslim, the more we are reminded that we are at war with these thugs.

I suspect the MSM “polls” will “show” a positive impact to the BS.

If this phony fake fraud jackass is on TV at 8, I’ll be watching EWTN.

I heard CNN rejected it along with ABC.

LOL! Do you remember the commercial? Wasn’t it for Apple? But, where’s the girl running past the trolls in her Nike shoes weilding the Thor-like hammer into the screen and smashing the image of Big Brother?! Oh, that’s right . . . it’s Sarah Palin!

I can't help my gut feeling that this will backfire.

It's just arrogant and more than a bit megalomaniacal. He could have scheduled this for a travel day, but instead he chose to interrupt the World Series. That's the sign of a brazen individual.

And if there are still undecideds out there, are they really going to want to watch an uninterrupted half-hour of BarryTV?

I mean really. I'm voting for McCain, but I wouldn't watch some goofy half-hour soft-focusy paean to the man. And I don't think most Americans like the idea of a half-hour commercial for a politician - even one like Barry, whose going to heal the planet right after he raises your taxes.

Yes, that was an Apple Superbowl commercial years ago.

CNN just announced they’re NOT going to accept the ad buy. ABC also refused. FOX News wasn’t asked. Just an FYI

Well, their ratings are going to improve!

Why do I think back to Ross Perots infomercial? But today.. like many have said.. the Indoctrinated will savor the message Obama is putting out...

One could understand Perot doing a commerical of that length since he was running as a 3rd Party and had to get himself known.

This 30 minute commerical will not reflect well on Obama.

since his numbers always went up after past speeches, it probably helps

He won't be able to say anything of substance because anything that smacks of socialism will draw a big "Told you so" from those that have been stating this all along. It will be more flowery language that signifies nothing, but it will sound good to those dumb enough to fall under his spell.

Isn’t NoBama doing two infomercials? (Or did I hear this wrong?)

I know people are really tired of all of this. I wouldn’t watch if it were McCain giving an infomercial, and I (used to) love this stuff. I guess all the swing states are in the East, and this is primetime, but people are just leaving or just getting home from work in the west. Maybe some morons who haven’t heard the Messiah speak, but if he’s going to talk like he’s already the President, I don’t know....

The undecided voters who are most likely to vote Obama are also the exact same voters who will be pissed off that the TV show they normally watch isn’t on and they will NEVER listen to a 30 minute speech. I think it will backfire.
