Bruce Whalen runs new commercial... kind of
Bruce Whalen is running a new commercial. Kind of. It's new in that it includes a different person in the commerical scolding Stephanie Herseth over her oft repeated comments about being pro-choice and supported by NARAL, but it's almost identical to the first one.
The title of this commerical is "melissa," where it has a young woman talking about being proud to be from South Dakota, and pro-life.
Speaking of all of this, in an e-mail where Bruce's campaign announces this, they also provide links to the original audio (and a word trancript) of the call.
According to this campaign update, in what they note as the "Most shocking quote on the conference call:"
And I told you that he was going to come out swinging in the last week or so. How effective it will be at the ballot box remains to be seen. But it's quite clear that he's fighting for the seat until the end.

"I also wanted to acknowledge that Stephanie Herseth was one of the leaders who really encouraged this strategy of taking the abortion ban to the ballot. She believed in it early on and her chief of staff Jeff Navmin has been very, very active in helping to plan the strategy. So it's been a really important partnership," Said Sarah Stoesz, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Minnesota, South Dakota, and North Dakota.Read it all here at the Bruce Whalen for Congress campaign website.

Other issues? What other issues?
Did I mention that I'm pro-life? Yes, I'm pro-life. I'm proud to be pro-life. And I'm proud to be from South Dakota. Oh yes, and I'm proud to be pro-life....
Are you all suggesting that I guy from south dakota can't work for issues he is involved with in his free time?
But hey, when its all you got, its all you got. Run with it guys, I'm sure it will be a very effective.
Princess Stephanie ... hmm, sounds like a major case of jealousy to me.
No matter how many posts PP does for his advertiser, Whalen, he's not going to get over 30% of the vote.
oh, right, never, because they serve as Herseth's personal pr machine
So if I don't vote for Bruce Whalen, does that make me an atheist, white, pro-choice, Democrat?
This attitude is what is wrong with the republican party.
And, yes, he is prolife and last anon, if you don't vote for him some believe you are going to hell.
Small wonder liberals hate him? They're scared to death of a politician with Whalen's ideals.
The simple fact is that all the guy can talk about is that he is pro-life. Our state has many other issues that many people think are more important than the abortion ban.
Whalen has shown little knowledge of any other issues nor has he said or done anything to indicate that he would be an effective leader.
Whalen might be a nice man, but he's not leadership material - at least not at this point he isn't. If the Republican party wants this guy to get anywhere in politics, they had better start educating him on the real issues that face this state and this country.
I agree. Nobody hates Whalen. He is just a one issue candidate. Over time, one issue candidates don't win.
"You're the girl in the Whalen commercial, that pro-life native guy right? Didn't he lose by 30 point or something like that?
