Last December, The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported "Blackwell's campaign has paid almost $15,000 since last year to ccAdvertising" to conduct automated "push-polls".

"The automated calls are amassing ... voter information while sometimes spreading negative messages about Blackwell's leading Republican rival, Attorney General Jim Petro..."

That was December. That was the primary.

I downloaded Blackwell's 2006 expenses yesterday (from his OSOS site).

Since December, the Blackwell campaign has paid ccAdvertising an additional $111,346!

I'm guessing Ken has already prepared a bunch of "surveys" aimed at conservative Christian voters. I figure they go something like this:

Press "1" if you support Ken's pro-family (homophobic), pro-life (misogynistic) platform.
Press "2" if you are a queer-lovin', baby-killer like Ted.
Press "3" to donate money to Ken Blackwell's campaign.

If only Ken could pay someone to push him up in the polls that count.
