I just read in the comments over at the GOTV blog that Andy Hurst may be able to run a TV ad. That would be nice, especially if it was so good or had some sort of newsworthy message or even a technical gimmick that would cause it to be played or described by the press.
The debate with Hurst, Davis, and Greco that was held at the Gov't Center will be replayed by Cox Cable Ch. 10 one more time on Oct. 21 at 9:30 am. It would also be helpful if someone with the knowhow (unfortunately not me) could make a digital recording of it and post postive Hurst clips and negative Davis clips to YouTube.
The bottom line is Andy needs attention. Anyone who follows the news or local politics or does even a little websurfing already knows that Andy is qualified. I don't think very many potential voters do any of those things. They're going to see Davis's ads, see Davis's signs, and they already are familiar with seeing Davis's name on the ballot for years. If they bother to vote at all, I'm afraid they're going to go with the devil they know, not realizing just how devilish Davis has become and how not devilish at all Andy is.
Sadly, going negative works. This blog was mentioned for the very first time in another blog, FCDC, after I commented at GOTV that Davis had hired disgraced ex-Rep. Ed Shrock to a Staff Director position on a subcommittee of the House Gov't Reform Cmte. I think it's arguably legitimate to publicly ask Davis to ask Schrock if he had any knowledge or information about similarly disgraced ex-Rep. Foley.

I think we need Kenton to teach us how to upload onto YouTube.
The signs don't worry me so much. Signs are what you do when you have a million dollars and no volunteers.

I don't want to put this all on Kenton. So, I encourage anyone else who has the know-how and the time to post pro-Hurst clips and anti-Davis clips. There might even be other sources apart from the debate. There's another debate on Thursday Oct. 19 in Prince William County that someone may be able to digitally record. There's also that very effective and infectious "Had Enough?" music video that's been adapted for many challengers' campaigns. It would be great if someone could adapt it for Hurst.
