I only watch Fox and a few of the channels that show old Gunsmoke and Perry Mason type shows, very little TV. And usually have talk radio on - no TV. I’ve wondered where all the Bloomberg ads were, but I found out they are all over the radio except for the talk radio, over the weekend. Nonstop.
Here’s what I want to know. Who are all those excited people standing behind Bloomberg in those ads? Are they computer-generated images? People paid by the hour to cheer for him?
What’s the deal here? Some conservative journalist should look into this.
1/3rd of Hillary’s entire 2016 spending.
And Mike hasn’t even gotten to Super Tuesday yet.
And Trump beat Hillary with half her spending.
One theory: Mike is practically pre-paying the advertising costs for the eventual nominee. He pays $1B in easy advertising now, the Not Trump gets deliberate free coverage later.
My wife asked me if Bloomberg will quit. I said no and put it this way:
Imagine that I’m old, have $5,000 a month coming in and have $500,000 in savings, and my house is paid off. And it costs me, until november, $200 a month to run for president and flood the airwaves with ads? And I really hate Trump.
Why would I quit?
I read where Steyer spent something like $3700 per vote to get zero delegates.
Wee Mikey is going to have to work to beat that record.
So he averaged over $5.34 million in ad spending per day. That’s more than what many people will earn in their lifetimes.
