Yes, I saw that ad, and my thoughts were, 1. Who cares? Maybe they are actually being frugal with their campaign funds by purchasing the least expensive printing services, and in return, they will be far less beholden to the burden of fund raising, and won't "owe" any favors to large dollar campaign contributors. Sounds like a win-win situation for the citizens. 2. Given the above, it seems like this PAC spent an awful lot of their own contributors money on an expensive set of ads that carry zero weight in this election. I'd be pretty mad if I had given them money and that's how they used it. Sounds like someone is creating a way to waste the citizen's money to me. “One of the ads takes a shot Pedroza, Sorg and Thomas for spending campaign money with out-of-town businesses instead of local businesses.”
