Ads and debates
Thursday, Mar 9, 2006 - Posted by Rich Miller As expected, this ended up being the top story from last night’s GOP debate - something which happened after the debate ended.
Also, let’s continue our discussion from last night on the new Dem TV ads. Edwin Eisendrath’s new political ads are here. Rod Blagojevich’s are here. IMPORTANT UPDATE: Bernie blasts another big hole in Marty Kovarik’s statement to the Oberweis campaign. In the sworn statement, Kovarik said nothing about passing on the alleged request from Topinka to shred the document. In fact, when asked by the lawyer if he ever shredded the document, he said: “It’s a state document. I wouldn’t shred the document. You’re crazy.” Read the whole thing. UPDATE: House GOP Leader Tom Cross and several other House Repubs will reportedly endorse Judy Baar Topinka today at 12:30.

This is a re-post from late last night, because it was too late for anyone to see my question:
One thing about Eisendrath’s commercials that I found odd was his use of the term “this guy†over and over again, even referring to himself. I don’t know why, but that just struck me as weird. Sort of like one of those star athletes who refers to himself in the third person. What do other people think?

Rich, note that Dellimore on WBBM is running as his lead the quote from Andy Martin linking JBY and Ryan.
Leading your piece with a quote from a guy getting less than 1% of the vote? Is Blago paying this guy off through a “Media Outreach” program or something?
