Saw a Kerry ad in WYOMING!!!

[TheReligiousLeft]

I'm the van driver for the local homeless shelter here in Cheyenne. I stopped in the break room to see what my peeps were watching. There was a KERRY AD! No one made a comment, but why is Kerry doing ads here? Not that I'm not flattered.

1. Kerry's not running ads in August

It must've been from the DNC or some other organization. However, I'm as surprised as your are to know it's airing in Wyoming.

3. Well, if they are running ads in Wy

that is a good sign, isn't it? It means they have money. Kerry is not going to win Wy. But if they can afford to run ads here, that is good!

2. There's only one television station in Cheyenne

Are you certain they weren't watching a Denver station or cable?

I know this because I lived in Cheyenne for a quarter century.

6. Yarg, you are right

I haven't had cable in quite a while, I forgot that it existed. Damn. Still, it was cool to see the ad even here in Red heaven.

4. the DNC

is running national cable ads as well as larger buys in battleground states.

5. good strategy

I always thought the lopsided victories were more due to our complete ignoring of those states. I'll bet it'll only take a few bucks to get some of those states to look weak Bush. ie get Kerry into the 40's

7. Talk about a waste of money. Unless it's for the Colorado overlap

They do that in Boston. They run ads because the market is watched by southern NH
