Anybody seen the ad with General McPeak, retired of the Air Force ?
"Four years ago, I voted for George Bush, but not this time. I'm voting for John Kerry...."

He says he voting for someone with common sense and a strategy to win.

It is a very effective ad, in my opinion.

3. They play it a lot in OR
I think the Gen'l lives in Lake Oswego.

Bush should give the fuck up on Oregon, but I'm delighted he's still wasting Republican money here.

10. As Gov. McCall once said: "Visit but don't stay!"
Good ad and I'm proud to have the General as a fellow Oregonian.

Bush MUST GO!!! The farther the better!

17. It Is An Excellent Advertisement, Sir
It is showing on national cable news buys with some frequency, so that even here in Illinois we see it occassionally.

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

20. I have one quibble with that ad
By the time he says, "This time, I'm voting for John Kerry" and the music swells and it makes you stop and look -- his name isn't up there. I'd like to see his name onscreen through-out his speaking.

Small quibble, but it's what I think whenever I see it.
