Don't know what the Swiftees can do in October as far as ads go. Nothing, I think. Deadline is early September for that.

They'll keep the heat on, though, and that's going to be interesting to watch.

Are we having fun yet?

Nope, Swiftees can run right up to the election:

Quote:
Under federal law, the 527 groups cannot coordinate their ads with the presidential campaigns. But if they use individual donations, rather than labor union or corporate donations, they can run ads praising or attacking a candidate right up until Election Day.

In theory, 10 donors could each give $5 million to a 527 group for an ad blitz to run in the final week before Nov. 2, as long as the group disclosed to the Federal Election Commission the names of the donors, the amount spent, and the stations or TV networks on which the ads were broadcast within 24 hours of the broadcast.

The FEC’s 24-hour disclosure rule means that it would be difficult to run an ad without revealing who paid for it. An ad could run on Nov. 1, but by Nov. 2 the FEC and the public would know.

"YouGottaBeKidding", I bet you've never been so glad to be incorrect about something. Smile From the looks of it, October is going to really devestate kerry's credibility, which already has more holes in it than his senate record. You can only erase on paper so many times before you tear the paper up. Smile

Thank you for this MP3. I was wondering if anyone out there had any other MP3s that speak for themselves on Kerry like this one does.

Thanks!


This is a video made with his actual voice in the background discussing Communism.

RocketFett,

I am delighted to be wrong about the Sept. 2 deadline. I hope there is a series of surprises....

Thank you very much.

In my opinion, the more that we can present FACTS, Kerry will go down even faster.
