Campaign Advertising

Check out some of Lynn Swann's gubernatorial campaign advertising purchases on Google:

Rick Santorum
Bob Casey
Ed Rendell
Franco Harris
Terry Bradshaw

I wonder how many other former Steelers are now part of Swann's political advertising campaign?

Bush Is Dangerous

Perhaps Todd Platts and other local Republicans are concerned about Bush somehow hurting them. (Courtesy of York Daily Record)

(Talk about low expectations: check out the response when Bush starts up a Harley)

I Feel Like a Proud Parent...

PCN has made their first post on PCNBlog. Give them some comments - they deserve some positive feedback.

Presidentin' is Hard Work

Man, I hope Bush tries to ride a Harley. After seeing him on a Segway, I can just imagine the results. As long as he doesn't kill anybody, comedy gold.

A Statistic Every State Legislator Campaign Website Should Display

I like this kind of statistic, kept on Casey Roncaglione's web site, who is the Democratic Candidate 164th District Pennsylvania House Of Representatives...

HOMES VISITED SO FAR
5745

I think this should be an expected stat by the candidate-visiting web public.

Public Affairs Television Blogs

It appears to me that Pennsylvania Cable Network will be the second state-based public affairs cable channel - that is, one that covers state government - that will have its own blog, if it does come to pass. I checked the following cable channel web sites, and other than for Illinois, didn't see anything like a blog on them...

TVW (Washington State)
The California Channel
The Connecticut Network
The Illinois Channel
NET Television (Nebraska)
Gavel to Gavel Alaska
KET (Kentucky)
Michigan Government Television
New York State Legislative Proceedings

The Illinois "blog" doesn't seem to try to synch up to programming. C-SPAN does not have a blog, either.

Some News About PCNBlog

Back in December, I took up a little project to try to convince Pennsylvania Cable Network to develop their own blog. (I wrote about it here) The idea was to build a rudimentary blog about PCN, get it started, and try to convince them they should do the same.

Hopefully, we're near success. I met with Rick Cochran at PCN to transfer PCNBlog on Monday, and the hope is that next week they'll start to post their own material there. Hopefully, there will come a point where they'll tie in the blog and their call-in programs. It's too early to declare victory, but I'm hopeful.

Senator Santorum Farewell Tour

Looks like he'll be giving hugs to old friends at the Pennsylvania Press Club on August 28.
