We need to flip republican voters too and I think we are getting some. He needs to work the whole state and we need to gotv locally which we are working on.

I was wondering whether these ads were local broadcasts ony, or on cable shows. I don't see local news much, so I might have missed them.

Certainly positive news, but I'll believe it when I see it. Can't see the pubs losing in Alabama. When the chips are down, they're going to pull it out. It's AL. And if their victory is in doubt, I'm sure the machines can make up any shortfall.

To begin with the Democratic candidate takes an early lead. We have hope!!
Holds lead for a good while. We might win!!
A week before the election the polls 'tighten'. Uh oh
Then when election happens and people actually vote...The Repub wins by 7 percent.
I seen this one before. A few times.
