Aren't we about to lose the SwiftVet TV ads on Sept 3 due to McCain / Feingold? Perhaps a "major" news outlet is promising to run with it just to keep the Swiftees still until the plug is pulled. I wouldn't trust anyone from the MSM.

nope - they are put on with funds contributed not from Labor or Large corporations, so they can be aired....

No. They just have to stop using "soft" money then
(like the original nest egg, likely all spent anyway),
and use only restricted/limited/recorded/reported
funds from individual contributors, like you and me.

No, the Swifties have about 2.5 million dollars of hard money contributions. They will continue.
