He's not going to buy any more TV time. That's a surrender.

Hilarious.

It's Oct 16. Getting near the time when all the ad-buys that are going to occur have already been made. It's not like there's tons of desirable time available for purchase at this point. Campaigns that have a ground-game will be moving more on that front the rest of the way.

From the story:

"Ed Gillespie, one of the Republican establishment’s most respected advisers and powerful fundraisers, badly trails in the race for campaign cash and has asked television stations to stop running his ads for a U.S. Senate seat fewer than three weeks before Election Day.

Reports filed with the Federal Communications Commission show Gillespie’s campaign cancelling or drastically reducing the amount of money it plans to spend on television ads in coming days. At the same time, political operatives who track television advertising said Thursday that Gillespie does not have ads reserved in the final push toward the Nov. 4 elections."

What part of "asked television stations to stop running his ads" and "cancelling" and "drastically reducing" do you not understand? He's not NOT buying more; he's cancelling media he had already reserved.

"Gillispie has struggled to keep pace in fundraising and advertising. He loaned his campaign $65,000 over the summer.

The non-partisan Center for Public Integrity shows Warner has spent $4.4 million on ads and the liberal Virginia Progress PAC has spent another $2 million.

Gillispie has spent $3.5 million on ads, but a scant $174,000 has come from outside groups."


The grass-roots campaigning among Republicans cannot match the big outside money (Soros, etc.) that democrats bring to Virginia.

Yet if you only read the Democrat fundraising emails, you would believe the opposite is true.

Mark Warner is guaranteed to win, with NoVa having been infested with liberals moving in to the state to flee the consequences of them having elected corrupt and clueless democrats - no jobs, high taxes, businesses shutting down, etc. Unfortunately, braindead lib zombies are incapable of learning from their mistakes.

Ed never stood a chance.

The disease of liberalism is metastasizing in Virginia.

The people of Va. are gonna get a lot more than they bargained for. The liberals won't know the difference. Conservatives will have to leave or hunker down with their arsenal of weapons to protect their properties from illegal search and seizure as part of Obamacare.

Ed is the real deal. It is a shame that the people around here have blinders on and can't see what the current "leaders" have done to this area. They are all about themselves and their party not about the people who they are to represent. It is hard to change which way you will vote but all I ask if for you to honestly look where the current people in charge have gotten us. I have lived here all my life and my parents were die heart democrat but after the last 4 years of what is going on we have nothing to leave our kids it is time for change.

Ed Gillespie -- former Enron lobbyist -- is the "real deal"? Hilarious.

So he just ran an ad on MNF saying he opposes the bill forcing the Redskins to change their name. Talk about a cheap, desperate attempt. I love it. That ad got him at least one vote.

Who can compete with the 0.0000001% that is Warner with his $200 million networth???

Not anyone that made an honest living instead of flipping cellular spectrum.

PS: goober is what people in high school used to call each other who lacked adequate reading skills such as yourself.

Have seen a hundred TV ads for Mark Warner the past week. Not one mention of a single accomplishment in the Senate. He's a failure just like Obama. So yes, count on the illegals, felons, and leeches to vote for him.

Warner is lock-step with whatever Reid and the White House tell him to do. He's not the senator from Virginia, he's the senator from the Democratic Party. He takes care of his cronies, and the rest of us are treated as serfs.

I'm sure that they (Soros, etc.) fund comment-trolls on FFXU to keep the appearance that they have grass-roots support.

Ugh.

Well, there's at least one thing we can be thankful for. Mark Warner will be in the MINORITY party come the next Congress. That will, at least, stop the bleeding.

Doesn't Warner's face look weird. That 'artifically constructed baby face' look gives me the fucking creeps. That's before I even consider his politics.

When I consider his politics and how much of a leftie-libtard clone of Obolio and Reid he is, no fucking way am I voting for this POS. My health insurance deductible is now $5K. It was less than $1K before ObolioCare, now that they had to add lactation services and cadillac coverage for illegal invaders.

It's not that I love Gillespie, it's that I loath Warner, Obolio, Reid, Pelosi, et al. Fuck all these douchenozzles!
