Since only pro-57/58 ads are being show on TV and heard on the radio, I'm sure the gap is narrowing between the NOs and YESes. The commercials are slick and effective. How much so remains to be seen. If the NOs win, it won't be by much. Bonds are a hard sell for conservatives. It'll be interesting to see which party voted for it more.

The 57-58 commercials don't offend me like the crap put out by the pro-56 fools.

But it was good to see a strong anti-56 campaign at the convention. I managed to score a NO ON 56 button.

The news coverage I managed to see was rather scant, particularly on the Kaloogian rally. Too much focus on gay marriage, gay marriage, and gay marriage. Somehow the news crews found all the log cabin Republicans to express their disappointment in Arnold coming down on the San Francisco gay marriage outrage. Gag.

You are correct about the electronic media coverage of the Kaloogian rally. We were discussing that this morning on the phone... the Arnold-Lockyer gay marriage dustup got about 1/2 the political coverage on TV last night in a number of markets in the state. "Oh and there is a Repub. convention with a debate between the four leading candidates" was next. And on some the mention of illegal immigration was included. With passing Kaloogian mention. Others had no mention at all.

Finnegan's LA Times story was the best... ironic since he hates conservatives... but in his mind the rally by Kaloogian and following he attracts on the issue of immigration is something to be 'exposed' so we can all rise up to stop it.

I noticed also that on Thursday or Friday MAPA came out to endorse Boxer and they tag-teamed to attack Kaloogian and his proposals. We were encouraged by that. Yes, please, make us the evil people who believe our borders should be enforced. And make sure you rant and rave about that to the media so they can tell the rest of the people of California that Howard feels that way. :)
