I think you need to reconsider who votes and why.  A former attorney of
mine -- a liberal Democrat -- is aghast about Kerry.  He believes that more
than 40 states will go for Bush.  I see things more balanced, but who knows.

Kerry's support -- the White House plays to this sentiment -- is soft.  Vote
fraud might help -- it's traditionally a Democratic enterprise and the signs
are strong that it is really occurring this year in unprecedented fashion.
Don't forget the Roe effect (are republican women more likely than
democratic women to have abortions?)

You should also overlay the cities where Sinclair has stations over a map of
the battleground states.

The people who won't watch the program (decided Kerry voters) won't be
affected by it.  Swing voters are likely to be swayed more than a bit, and
they aren't likely to be subject to blowback.  Republicans will watch and be
energized.  To vote. Once.

Of course, you live in Manhattan.  I suspect that you do not know anyone
planning to vote for Bush.  I know people all over the place, including a
elderly republican friend who is voting for Kerry, because Kerry (subtext)
will get us out of Iraq.  On Jan 21, if given the chance.

Nuisance, indeed!

I hope they run it. It will have a major blowback IMO. Kerry wins by 6%
going away IMVHO.
