Negative TV ads continue against Al Franken
Edited on Wed Oct-15-08 07:37 PM by Eric J in MN
Senator Norm Coleman (R-MN) issued a press release on Friday which says, “As of today I am suspending all negative campaign ads and am calling on those who support me to do the same.”

While the Coleman campaign's negative ads seemed to have stopped, the "National Republican Senatorial Committee" keeps running negative ads against Al Franken. I saw this one on broadcast TV tonight:

5. I don't think voters are dumb enough to fall for this.
Norm said no negative ads, the negative ads continue, ergo Norm lied. He thought he was doing poorly against Al before? Just wait til this round finishes.

6. Norm has been carpet bombing the airwaves all day. It's the 527s.
It's quite a display.

Some campaigns have targeted donation under which you can donate towards buying an ad on your favorite TV program, but I can't find anything like that for Franken.
We can just scrape together our $20 donations, though, and be confident that it will buy airtime.

Nobody should doubt that the RNC will be throwing the kitchen sink at this race. Franken has raised a good pot of money but he's going to need all of it, and MORE.
