Early bird TV ads for Blunt

From the A.P. Friday:

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Governor Blunt's campaign plans to
begin running television ads across the state next week. The spots
are aimed at touting what he's done in office, and follow a series
of radio ads that aired earlier this summer.
But in contrast to the many candidates with yard signs and
presence in newspapers and over the airwaves this time of year,
Blunt isn't on the ballot this fall. In fact, he doesn't face
re-election until 2008.
A media consultant for the Republican governor's campaign says
he's just trying to tell Missourians about the good things he has
done in office -- messages consultant John Thompson says don't
always get through the "media filter."

Now we know why the Governor wanted to lift the limits off campaign contributions. He can't win on his record. He probably can't even win his own primary on his record. BUT now he can try to buy his way into office with money from the fee agents and other insiders he has helped enrich.

Bobby Tomato-- ads cost money. The more ads he runs the more he owes big money and special interests. Just what this Governor needs. In keeping with this new development and with your repeated description of the Govrnor as a good Christian I have suggestion for a song title about the Govenor and those special interest lobbyists that are financing these new ads:"Just a closer walk with thee"
