(Of course, he has the money)

It will give him a chance to reiterate his beliefs and plans for the country without being side-tracked or interrupted in any way.

Again, BRILLIANT!!

:woohoo: :applause:

1. Yes, it's brilliant and more proof that they are
making an excellent attempt at covering all the bases.

"The Democratic presidential candidate's camp is paying less than $1 million to each of the two networks to air its campaign-related program on Wednesday, Oct. 29. That's just six days before the election and the anniversary of Black Tuesday in 1929 -- the notorious day in stock market history that heralded the start of the Great Depression."

Just reading this is making me hyperventilate:bounce:

2. Plus it gives him one last chance to respond and reset the narrative
in the case of an October Surprise.

3. YES-- I'm so glad he's got the $$$ to do something like this
Which he wouldn't, had people not believed in him so strongly!!

4. I'm so looking forward to that.
It will be final resounding nail in McCain's coffin, and yet I expect it to be very conciliatory as well.

6. Obama has true class... you don't have to be a blustering bully
to get your point across-- he never once (that I know of) has lost his composure or his sense of fairness and decency. I just can't get enough!! :hi:
