Edwards' closing it out. HARD. The poor dude is doing, get this, 38 counties in 8 days. Coffee by IV anyone? Lord. Can you imagine! Those counties better be mighty close to each other.

EDWARDS LAUNCHES EIGHT-DAY, 38-COUNTY "AMERICA RISING: FIGHTING FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS" BUS TOUR

In the Final Push Before the Caucuses, Edwards Will Meet with Thousands of Caucus Goers to Discuss His Fight for an America that Works for Middle Class Families; Campaign Launches Two New Ads in Iowa

Des Moines, Iowa – Today, Senator John Edwards is launching an eight-day "America Rising: Fighting for the Middle Class" bus tour across Iowa to meet with caucus goers and share with them his plans to stand up to powerful interests and make sure hard-working middle class families can get ahead.  During the final days leading up to the caucuses, Edwards will visit 38 counties and meet with thousands of caucus goers to discuss his vision of an America  where every person can work hard and build a better life for their family.

Chrys, that's more than 1/3 of all the counties of Iowa. You know, I've suspected for sometime now that Edwards is a Cylon. With the looks, the longevity, never-ending nonstop working! Hmmmmm **Shaking fists at the delays for BSG!**

Anyway, on to the Ads. I've generally like the Edwards Ads. They've basically kept it real, by him saying the same thing in the ads as he does on the stump. Heck, some of the ads are actually his stump speeches.

Time for Truth

"Corporate greed and influence in Washington are stealing our children’s future," said Edwards. "We will never change this country unless we’re willing to take on these powerful interests. I believe that on the night of January 3rd, Iowans are going to say enough is enough. There’s going to be a rising that begins right here in Iowa, and it’s going to spread across America, and it will be a wave of change that cannot be stopped.  Together, we will stand up to these powerful interests, take back our country and make sure we leave our children a better world."

This Ad is also focused upon corporate greed.

Choice

This Ad focused upon who the power of the presidency belongs. I think Ad might be for NH.

Power

This Ad, I saw in the summer and I thought it particularly powerful, especially light of how tested the Edwards' are personally.  It's now running in Iowa.

30 Years

The Ads are coming out fast & hot now.

Thoughts?
