3. It's been running for several weeks in the Milwaukee market
Consider that the message is being broadcast to a population where Catholics are the largest religious denomination.

4. Don't be too certain just yet
The big money groups are now running continual ads against Ms. Kloppenburg, twisting the facts about how she did her job to make her seem heartless and vile. (Much like what happened against Justice Louis Butler over his work as a public defender, outright lying about one of his cases.) I fully expect to see some glossy trash in the mailbox today. They are panicked because their polling shows the race as even, although incumbent judges rarely have trouble being reelected. Now with former governor Lucey's defection from Prosser's committee and endorsement of Kloppenburg, and the Palin endorsement of Prosser, they will become even more desperate. Will voters fall for the lies again? We'll see.

5. This ad is being widely criticized in Wisconsin. At least one of the Priests victims...
...came out against the ad.

Still I think it's going to be Kloppenburg by a wide margin.

6. They have the victim in a pro-Prosser ad now
He says he's being victimized again. But his name is never mentioned in the original ad he and the sponsors are criticizing. So who is victimizing him now?
