  1. Have we seen any of this advertising yet?

  2. I would say no, this is for future advertising, or possibly buying more airtime for current buys that polls say are working.

    Childers said tonight in Ponotoc that internal polls had him with a 4 point lead.

  3. I haven't seen a DCCC ad yet (online). I'm not in the district, but from what I've seen he needs the help. Why buy space and then not use it?

  4. This was the first DCCC ad, but the new one is better. Just haven't gotten it online yet.

  5. Thanks Mitch. I wish I could say I meant since after the special, but they really just sliped my mind.

    So you're saying they're on the radio, but not TV?

    I don't listen to the radio....
