REAGAN BILLBOARD – REAL HOPE AND CHANGE
By Luke Hellier | March 15, 2010
Ed Morrissey over at Hot Air has a post up today about another Republican billboard in Minnesota. This time for President Reagan on I94:
Somehow, I think people will miss this man more than the one featured in the “Miss Me Yet?” billboard that appeared outside the Twin Cities in Minnesota last month. Another anonymous advertisement has appeared on the roadside of a major interstate freeway in the outer-ring suburbs of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolis area, on I-94 just outside of Albertville on the way from St. Cloud to Minneapolis. This ad recalls a President that never got his due in Minnesota:
Who paid for this ad? There are no indications on the sign itself, just as with the previous “Miss Me Yet?” sign with George W. Bush. Ronald Reagan never won Minnesota in either of his two national elections, but clearly someone recalls him fondly. It’s not cheap to pay for this kind of advertising, and it would be interesting to discover who’s behind this one.
I’ve got a hunch on who paid for the Reagan billboard.
That area of I94 has a considerable amount of advertising space for Franklin Outdoor Advertising. As the picture shows, Franklin is the company who owns the billboard.
Dan Franklin, owner of Franklin Outdoor Advertising is a long time donor/activist to Republican causes and I would be shocked if he wasn’t involved somehow.
