This is a pattern of deception by the payday lobby in Ohio. They are doing just about anything to get their issue on the ballot and to convince voters that they really, REALLY need 391% interest! They have two ads up running during the Olympics, one with an actor playing a farmer appealing to the “freedom lover” in all of us and a new one with a mother and her two sons who “might get sick before payday.” They’ve spent nearly $400,000 in 5 days on the first ad and the next ad buy is presumably just as high! Got to love being able to buy an election!!! They are right up there with Obama & McCain on Olympic Games ads in Ohio!
