KYTV (Springfield, Missouri NBC affiliate) Announced tonight that the Bush campaign has pulled its advertising money in Missouri. KYTV noted that Kerry pulled its funds long ago and that "Bush has a comfortable margin" in Missouri

No, haven't seen that one yet.

Ping!

MORE GOOD NEWS....

[Illinois Rep]

Dump half of the money for Missouri into Iowa and Wisconsin...the other half into Ohio. Florida will go our way...plus there should be a good amount already allocated for Florida. If Iowa and/or Wisconsin go our way....it's in the bag!

That little landslide victory banning gay marriage may have sent a signal to Kerry Missouri is off limits. Wonder how many other states with the gay marriage ban on the ballot will be a HUGE victory for Bush?

Well, if the word gets out about how upset they are with Kerry in Italy after the nasty insult he gave about the Italian army, NJ should shift over to the Bush side REAL FAST!

How about Cleveland and Philly?

I have seen the fewest number of democrat signs and stickers I have ever seen in 8 years here.

It was not until this week, after the debate that even a few kerry stickers started showing up. Maybe I am not driving through the right parts of town.

Actually here in VERY DEMOCRAT Rock Island County Illinois (This county was Democrat even during the Thompson, Edgar, Percy era) I have seen more Bush/Cheney signs than any other republican candidate in all my time here (since Nixon). I see a LOT of local Dem candidates signs...all lacking Kerry/Edwards signs....But I DO see a lot of Bush/Cheney signs all by themselves.

I am seeing ads by the Media Fund about Bush and the Saudis.

I have gotten at least 6 recorded calls from them. I was ready to turn them into the state no-call list as a pest.

I use to have to drive up to the North Shore area of Chicago every weekend, during the last 5 years. I have been wondering what the sign ratio is like this year. In the past it was very infested dem area because of Northwestern and then a few streets over began to get a little more Republican.

[Missouri]

Ping.

Rock Island County is home to the world headquarters for John Deere...We USED to be a strong union town...lots of manufacturing jobs etc...But the 80's saw those jobs leave. The Democrat and liberal mindset of the community, rather than attempt to change with the times, insisted on trying to make the unions stronger...killing even more business.

I have no doubt Kerry will win RI county BUT the signs for Bush are amazingly abundant.

[Missouri]

Wow--the bumper sticker ratio in ST. Louis is about two-to-one Bush over Kerry

You haven't been to North St. Louis County I guess. Here, Kerry yard signs have a 2 to 1 advantage. Back in 2000 it was about even.

I will admit there have been complaints of Bush signs being stolen up here in Florissant. I had my USA flag stolen right off of my front porch 2 weeks after 9-11 so I'm reluctant to put anything out in the front yard.

First question isn't even about Domestic Policy??? WTF???

[MHT]

My husband was scared that our Blunt sign had been stolen in the night. I vowed that if it was gone, I would replace it with five--and if those were stolen I'd replace it with ten.

I'm optimistic that the rest of the state is going to compensate for the St. Louis limousine liberals and other idiots. BTW, McNary is ahead of Dooley by alot--which is good news in its own way, too.

Regarding your reply, I bet you believe yourself to be the diamond amongst the turds. Get bent!

[valkyrieanne]

I know at least here in sw missouri sKerry signs are a rare sighting. Couldnt tell you what its like in left leaning st. louis, though.

I am in liberal heart-of-darkness Webster Groves. You wouldn't believe the number of Bush (and other Republican) signs around here. My township went 75% for Al Gore in 2000, but there are Bush signs *all over the place* now. I'm amazed.

Drop a few $$$ in New Jersey!

Not everyone is liberal. Some of us are getting frustrating at being ignored.

I agree on OH and FL. In Ohio I am seeing ads by the Media Fund about Bush and the Saudis. What a stretch. Kerry and crew are running lots of ads here now, and they outnumber Bush ads by 3:1.

Hail fellow Buckeye! Fortunately, I have not seen the Saudi ad, but I would say the ads are more like 4-1 Kerry and allied 527s.

It would be very, very nice to see more $ in Ohio. We have to defend what we have first, and Florida and Ohio are our two biggest vulnerable states. If we keep those, and everything else, we win again. (Heck, we could even lose NH and still come out ahead.)
