Does Anyone Know If This Is True?
I saw text running along the bottom of the screen on some cable show that the Obama campaign had purchased a giant billboard in St. Paul where the RNC Convention is. On the billboard is the infamous picture of McCain hugging Bush with a caption that says something like "Does This Look Like Change To You?"


I really hope this is true. If someone out there has a picture of the billboard, can you post it?

If true, it certainly demonstrates the competency of the Obama campaign. Kept his powder dry to maximize it's effect.

1. I heard that too.
I don't know if it was Obama directly, maybe another group. Either way, it sounds like an effective billboard.

2. I believe it was a Dem group that purchased it.
There are also smaller signs at many of the bus stops around town:

5. I'd much rather they show where McCain and Bush were during Katrina
Is that the hugging photo you're talking about?

But still, it'd be much more timely to have a Katrina reference
