Yes, as a matter of fact, they also bought that same time slot on the alphabet channels too. He knows that a lot of people won't tune into the Fox channel until < after > the ad is over and he's hoping that they will go to the alphabet channels so he's prepared to catch them there too.
I agree with you. His speech in Germany was seen by many here as "overboard." And let's not forget his acceptance speech at the Greek Temple in Colorado. Everything this guy has done is excessive, and over the top. The average American recognizes it and can't relate to it.
We really need to get this out now
WORLD SERIES VS OBAMA !
Obama moves World Series.
Fortunately, both the Dodgers and the Angels are out of the playoffs now, so I have absolutely no compelling reason whatever to watch.
This will not sit welll with the Joe the Plumbers of America!
Maybe he can throw out the first pitch and bounce it like Kerry.
I think sportsfans are not going to like his arrogance.
I think you are absolutely WRONG. See my # 5.
His “last word” will be seen as just that, and resented by anyone who just wanted to see the World Series at the scheduled time. McCain should let it go, and NOT think it necessary to “answer” with another expensive block of TV time.For the McCain campaign to rush to create their own TV infomercial would be equivalent to legitimizing this kind of tactic, like sitting down with Ahmedinejad “without preconditions” .Obama is toast. This is a sneaky stealth move which will only create resentment, since it LOOKS like it a blatant attempt to steal the ‘last word’ away from the entire process. Let him hang himself. Let him pay FOX for the rope he uses to hang himself, to reverse the old Lenin adage about capitalists.
“Truth be known, he probably doesn’t REALLY have to pay for the television ads he’s running, keeping cash available for his other ad blitzes.”
He probably still pays for them....Far below market value, but still pays for them none the less.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
wHOOPS. I meant see my # 57. NOT #5.
If the Rays play the Phillys in the World Series it will be one of the lowest watched World Series anyway.
It would have been great if it had been the Red Sox & Cubs or Red Sox & Dodgers(Manny being Manny).
Rays and Phillies, who cares.
Moses parted the Red Sea...Obama moves World Series.
Grrrrrrrrr.
Which is precisely why I'll be watching every game. Two teams that I don't hate are playing.
There are big charity fundraisers, with celebrities, and to raise money for children related causes all the time. I’ve never seen one shown on television, though.
In other news, the Atlantic Ocean has made plans to part on Jan 20. All McCain voters will be urged to cross over to Europe.
Classic!!
They’re not the FOX I used to know.......
