I just got an RNC "Paid Political Ad" popup on Comcast Broadband.
It had a picture of Kerry with the caption "The economy is improving and the Democrats don't know what to do. Click here for more information."

I'd say this makes the MoveOn ads fair play in anyone's book NOW.

I'm also sending Comcast an email that I don't appreciate paying the obnoxious fee I do for broadband and then having to put up with Political ads.

1. I've got Comcast, and haven't had popups like that...
You're sure it's not specific to a website you might have visited?

Don't think you can get more COMCAST than that!

4. The only political internet ads I have seen are for Chimp
(or against Kerry) - Is this how they are spending all their money?? I think people get irritated at having their internet use interrupted by popups.

I hope the Dems don't waste their money on them.
