Uh-oh, Andre!
WISH-TV's Jim Shella writes this on his blog today:
TV ads for Congressman André Carson slated to run on Tuesday, Wednesday, and today did not air because of a failure to make the required advance payments.
Carson campaign manager Alex Zwerdling confirmed this afternoon that no payment was made. He, at first, suggested that that it was the result of a strategic decision, then changed his answer to, “No comment.”
When Andre held off from endorsing Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton immediately, most thought it was smart, as it would not alienate either camps voters. Yesterday, he endorsed Obama, and got Obama's endorsement in turn. Our initial thought upon hearing the news was 1) Obama was doing poorly and Carson was doing well, 2) Carson was doing poorly and Obama was doing well, or 3) Both Carson and Obama were doing well, and Carson is just stupid.
We now know the case is #2: Carson is doing poorly in his first Democratic Primary.
I think #3 on "Carson is just stupid."
