You’ll probably see this without my help, but here’s Peter Brown’s fifth, and presumably final (modulo the runoff) TV ad:
I don’t know about you, but I’m seeing the Brown ads all over the place. I haven’t seen a Parker ad in at least a week, and saw my first Locke ad in at least that long Tuesday night, but I’ve seen the Brown ads during the baseball playoffs, and several of the shows I record on the TiVo. Heck, my office building has a big-screen TV in the lobby that’s usually tuned to CNN, and twice this month it was showing a Brown ad as I entered. There’s no escape, the man is everywhere. You know how I feel about the Chron’s poll sample, but I do believe all this airtime has helped him. It also helps that he’s got a good message, and that he’s delivered it consistently. One can only wonder what the landscape would look like if Parker and Locke had the same resources available to them.
Meanwhile, At Large #1 contender Stephen Costello is on the air as well:
Not bad, and according to Greg it should be on broadcast by now. I am also informed that Council Member Sue Lovell has an ad running – I don’t have a YouTube link handy, but will be on the lookout for one. As we get down to the wire and the cost of running an ad till Election Day, especially on cable, comes down, expect to see some more of this.
