[N8 v2.0]

We have no Kerry ads on TV here nor GW Bush ads for that matter (much to the newsmedia's dismay)... I see a lot of Bush stickers but only 1 or two Kerry/Edwards stickers.

When I was in NM, my mom and my friends were constantly being called by the democratic party, etc and there was heaps of college aged kids trying to register people at just about all public venues.

I am guessing LA is not a battleground state.

[golgiaparatus]

I havent seen a single one... not for the presidency at least.

Republicans know they have this state won hands down, too many conservative Bible thumpers in this area.

 

[-BB-]

None in CA either...

 

[Tenchiro]

We have a few in WA, it is about equal on both sides. When I say equal, I mean equal in number of ads and the heaploads of BS they pile on the viewer...

Presidential campaign ads are to politics as Jerry Springer is to marriage counseling.

Bush Backers Greet Edwards in Louisiana
]The Associated Press | 3 August 2004

BATON ROUGE, La. Aug. 3, 2004 — Vice presidential candidate John Edwards praised running mate John Kerry and never directly criticized their Republican opponents while campaigning Tuesday in Louisiana, a heavily Democratic state their party lost in 2000.

"The truth is he spent his life serving and fighting for this country," Edwards said of Kerry. "While others stood by, he stood up for fiscal responsibility."

Edwards had to shout at times to be heard over supporters of President Bush when he spoke at a rally at the Old State Capitol on the Mississippi River, the first of three stops in a daylong tour of Louisiana. Across the street, about four dozen Bush supporters shouted "Four more years!" and waved signs saying "Flush the Johns."

Edwards echoed his "two Americas" speech, arguing that "we shouldn't have two different economies in this country one for families that are taken care of for life, one for families that aren't."

Gov. Kathleen Blanco, who introduced Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth, said their family represents "what's best in America" and praised them for "giving back to the community."

Edwards was heading to Alexandria in central Louisiana and then to Shreveport in the northwest before traveling to two other states Bush won over Al Gore, Arkansas and Missouri.

Edwards has visited Louisiana twice this summer, and Kerry has been in the state three times since the spring. The Bush-Cheney ticket, which defeated Al Gore by 8 percentage points in 2000, leads comfortably in statewide polls.
