Clegg campaign advertises on Drudge

Clegg's ad on the Drudge ReportClegg's ad on the Drudge ReportSo I'm scanning the headlines on the DRUDGE REPORT this afternoon and what do I see at the top of the page?

A click on the picture of the jammin' congressman from the 2nd Congressional District brings you to a "survey" on the Bob Clegg for Congress website:

The survey has five questions on Congressman Hodes' use of "franked" mailings, including this one:

"1. According to the Concord Monitor (Hodes Has Seized on Mail Priveleges 6/19/08) Congressman Paul Hodes has spent over $235,000 on Taxpayer funded mailings in 2008 alone. Have you received Taxpayer funded "franked" mailings from Paul Hodes?"

And here is the last one:

"5. Paul Hodes says that people find it "refreshing" to hear from their member of Congress through these mailers. Do you find it refreshing or an abuse of Taxpayer dollars?"

Wonder how many hits Clegg will get. And how much does an ad on DRUDGE cost? I'm assuming the ad is aimed only at New Hampshire's Internet users.

The Clegg for Congress


The Clegg for Congress Campaign is the best with keeping in touch with its supporters. It always has new things on the official website and facebook is updated daily.

Keep it up Clegg

I especially like the fact


I especially like the fact that Bob Clegg has his yard signs littering the sides of the roads in Nashua. That's really classy, particularly when the signs are flopping over in the wind.

Peggasus?


Any congressman who is a folk singer with a wife named PEGGO and an albumn called PEGGASUS is open to that type of ad. Come on! Am I supposed to take him seriously?
