Good Morning Everyone,

I just read the latest polls, and while raw numbers are tricky this early in the election season, trends matter.

The SBVT ad has been running (IIRC) in Wis., WV, and Ohio. Well, according to the latest polling:

Wis. is now tied at 46% apiece. This is a small but telling drop in support for Kerry.

Likewise Neighboring Michagan has dropped 5 percentage points for Kerry and that is now a statistical tie as well. In addition, according to election projection, the latest polls have WV going from Kerry to Bush, but I can not cite a specific poll for this yet.

The point is that the annecdotal evidence would seem to suggest that in the markets we are running the ad, we are slowly but surely eroding support for Kerry. That would be impossible to quantify without further market research (i.e. polling), but it seems likely based on the effecitiveness of the ad per independant market research.

*whew*

Given this, I would not only suggest a new ad, but I would also try to get our current ad distributed into as many "battleground" markets as we can....or better yet (although this is somewhat expensive), national markets.

Truth is Beauty

[Steve02C5]

It's still 70+ days til election and as we all know, a lot of Dim dirty tricks, aided by the assistance of the major media, can be pulled against us and the Prez. We have to continue to keep the Democrats on the defensive, along with FOX News and the Washington Times, so far, being the only non-controlled press helping get the TRUTH out.

You have to register with the Times, but it's worth it:
