19. Viewing it from that angle

If they had been active since the recall petitions were turned in or even sooner, the money may have made a difference and most would argue well spent. This late in the race, especially this race where there are very few remaining undecideds, I don't know if it's a wise use of resources. Not many minds to change with massive ad buys and whatnot. Keep the GOTV efforts well manned and funded because this late in it's all about getting every vote turned out. And, to their credit, that is what they are helping out with and focusing on. I, for one, thank them.
