'It’s no secret why Kerry is sticking with positive ads – his campaign aides say they’re working and that Bush’s mostly negative ads have been backfiring. And in fact, the National Annenberg Election Survey issued a report last week concluding that Kerry’s standing has improved significantly in 20 “battleground states” in which both campaigns have been putting their advertising dollars. Between late April and the third week of May, Kerry’s “favorable” rating improved to 44% of adults in those states, up eight percentage points. Meanwhile Bush’s “favorable” rating in the battleground states declined to 44%, going down by four percentage points. “It's very clear the advertising has been a tremendous boon,” Kerry pollster Mark Mellman told reporters during a conference call June 1. The Annenberg poll showed no real change in the Bush or Kerry favorable ratings in states where ads were not appearing, pointing to a conclusion that the ads, and not other factors, are the most likely cause of Kerry’s improved showing.' Kerry Stays Positive, Avoids Specifics factcheck.org Emphasis added. This is evidence for the argument I've been making: The Bush Smear & Fear campaign will backfire!
