It must be sad to be so damned clueless and uninformed that the content of a television ad is what it takes to make up your mind about how to vote.

If he has any to spare, Iowa would be a good place to drop a few ads. Joe is going there on Friday.

Won’t win either state but it forces gop to play in states they shouldn’t have to.

I like that Bloomberg is doing this. Sadly I still have a memory of the half a billion $ he wasted on his own campaign and fear he is just wasting his money. Wish he’d throw his money at Lincoln Project.

As a former bond trader, Mike has to understand that timing matters. He does know that nearly half of Texas registered voters have already voted, doesn’t he?

This is what it looks like when a real billionaire trolls a fake one. Trump simply can’t answer this buy because he’s out of cash, both personally and as a candidate. For a supposed “counter-puncher” this silence on the airwaves makes Trump look weak.

On NBC News last night, they interviewed a POC family in Nevada with a special needs child, describing the horrific situation they were in with job losses, no money and about to lose their residence.

At the end, the mother indicated that she was “leaning” towards voting for Biden.

I threw up in my mouth…

Dear Mikey B.:

You’re too fucking late. 80% of the votes are already in.

Wish Bloomberg would drop some coin on the Kansas, Montana, and Alaska senate races. TV money goes much farther there.

Exactly. So now is the great time for the push to home. Further the reach to the fence sitters and reluctant folks, since you’ve gotten all the easy ones.

Plus it’s symbolic and will piss off Trump.

And yet we have a reality TV game show host as President, who genuinely believes that his ratings on the TV mean more than the polls. Clueless and uninformed people buy stuff. Keeping them clueless and uniformed is good for the economy.

More successful ads convince a voter not to vote. Get the opponent’s leaners to stay home.
