McCain Campaign Now Advertising In West Virginia
The McCain campaign is up with two radio ads in West Virginia, a state that went for George W. Bush by 13 points in 2004, according to an employee at one of the state's major news stations.
One ad attacks Obama for Joe Biden's recent "clean coal" remarks, and the other hits Obama over his "bitter" comments.
Previously, on the GOP side, only the RNC was spending money on ads in West Virginia. That the McCain camp is now spending on ads in the state is yet another sign that the broadening map is putting McCain on defense in multiple states that went for Bush last time, sometimes by significant margins, and forcing him to spend money in them with time running out.
The employee, who's with WCHS in Charleston, tells us that McCain is running this spot on the station geared specifically to West Virginia that attacks Obama on coal, charging that while clean coal means "thousands of jobs" for West Virginians, it's opposed by "Obama, Biden, and their liberal allies":
The WCHS employee also confirms that the West Virginia station is running another McCain ad that stars Hank Williams, Jr., hitting Obama over the "bitter" line, a spot that had only been previously heard in Montana.
"When Barack Obama said folks like you and me were bitter, and clinging to religion, I knew he just doesn't understand small town America," the ad says. "We love our God, and we love our guns, 'specially handed down from our grandfathers. And we resent it when liberals like Obama question our way of life. Don't be bitter, vote McCain."
MT and WV.... If you're running out of money, cheap media markets may be your Hobson's Choice.

OK, I'm starting to get annoyed. West Virginia and Montana get campaign ads, while we here in Connecticut get nothing???!??@##??? That's just not right, people.
Is the Ralph Stanley TV ad playing in West Virginia? Does anyone know?

Gentlemen, I believe by next week there is a good chance that the McCain people will, rather than get Biblical or Shakespearean in their invective, go a more, shall we say, Chaucerian direction to describe Sarah Palin.

Man, is this what winning an election feels like? Because it feels pretty great. Every now and then throughout the day, I'll check out that little map with the state electoral projections and pretend it's November 4th.
It's like being at the Kentucky Derby and seeing your horse pull away with a furlong to go. You just want them to stop the race and call it a win. All I'm hoping for is that nothing interesting happens in the next 7 days--playing with a lead is nice for a change.

All of the prognostications are based on the polls, and I don't fully trust the polls. The key element of any poll is the modeling of the population at large. This modeling is largely based on historical data, but I think there are many new patterns developing in this election. Logic tells me that most of these changes benefit Obama, but the uncertainty unsettles me.
Then again this may just be my "He who expects nothing is never disappointed" protection circuit kicking in.

No no no. You don't understand how it works. MSM can't run a story like that; it's too one-sided. I mean, if an official source like, say, the McCain campaign was disputing the incident, then they could report it, maybe get Democratic and Republican strategists on to represent both sides at the tops of their lungs. But so long as the story is this black and white affair consisting of nothing but stark and unambiguous facts, there's virtually no way MSM can report it without appearing to favor one side, you see. If that happens, then Bill O'Reilly might say mean things about them on his show.
Can't have that.

O my god - there was one hell of a fight just now on Hardball - Bob Shrum and a Repug political consultant or something - and was there some fur flying! Shrum finally got pissed off because the Repug idiot kept just straight up lying and yelling over Shrum and then he said: Obama has never done a hard thing in his life.
Well, Shrum screamed: Someone from the south really shouldn't be saying that a black presidential candidate never did a hard thing - and boy then it really got bloody. There were sparks and Chris went to a commercial.

Just saw that too. Ed Rogers is despicable and is a classic reason why the Repubs are losing so badly. Did you notice his Republican smirk when he was trying to talk over Shrum? That smirk is a *classic* sign of someone lying. Oliver North was famous for it. So was George "Macacca" Allen. Rogers is such a moral coward that he can't even admit when he lies. His comments about Obama not having done a hard thing in his life is such typical Republican hate. As if Rodgers has a clue about growing up black?! And they think that appeals to anyone outside their foaming-at-the-mouth base? Rodgers it the poster child for the Republican hate crowd. I feel genuine sorry for his family because someone who has no problem lying before a TV audience does not pass along morals and ethics.

My mom used to talk about the rain in Honolulu. And the mold.
My parents moved from a trout farm in Sierra Nevadas - was the hell and gone up in the Sierras, where they'd lived and run that trout hatchery for about 6 years before they went broke due to a flood. They went back down to LA and my dad took a job with the Navy (he'd built ships during the war) in Hawaii, and that's why I was born there. My mom didn't like it there one bit. She really missed the mountains - she grew up in Colorado Springs.

Interesting rumors out of Alaska has the Republican party pushing for folks to vote Stevens because even if he has to step-down, it would mean a special election would have to be held, which would allow for a new Republican candidate to run. And of course who would that fresh candidate be? Sarah Palin.
The theory is that Palin wants into Washington, and knows she'll never get the necessary credibility or FP chops as Governor or Alaska, however as Senator she could start building her resume, while dialed into the Washington scene.
I wonder if her power brokers will try and push this realizing that she'll lose any power she hopes to claim if she's up in Alaska while Romney, Huckabee and the rest are working the backrooms in DC.

Another thing that Rogers said was that McCain wants to "grow our way out of the deficit".
Yeah Ed I listened to that same BS from 1981 until 1989 as Reagans plan to cut the budget deficit. That along with "give me the line item veto" and then I can cut spending, well that didn't work either.

Adding to myself here...
Early in 1993, as congress debated the Clinton budget, the republicans said it would put millions of people out of work and put the country into a depression.
Today the republicans are saying that Obama tax plans will put millions of people out of work, and guarantee a depression (since were already in a recession they have to scare you even more). This time add in the "were in a war" fiscal argument the republicans are using as a reason to leave taxes as they are.
As a footnote in 1993 NOT ONE republican voted for the Clinton budget. They never seem to talk about that fact. Their opposition to what turned out to be a very successful budget, and many years of economic growth shows the stubborn nature of the gop.

I expect tomorrow that the Repugs will all be out criticizing Obama for buying 30 minutes of ad time.
What I am wondering is will Obama maybe name who would serve on his cabinet or perhaps people he would appoint to a special commission to the Middle East. It could give voters some assurance and it would also control the media for the rest of the week. I think there is an October surprise included in this. Also the fact that he is with Bill Clinton tomorrow might somehow tie in.
