Missing in action from the Taylor campaign: Both Young and Franklin

On Sunday the ajc's Political Insider has this story entitled "Franklin goes up on radio — not TV — for Taylor."

While Republicans have worried whether conservative Christians will show up tomorrow, Democrats have quietly expressed concern about their own base.

During the primary, Mark Taylor, the candidate for governor, brought out former Atlanta mayor Andrew Young in a 30-second TV spot to carry the turnout message to black voters.

If there’s an equal effort in the general election, we haven’t seen it. Last week, Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin cut a radio ad for Taylor that’s getting significant air time across the state, on stations geared to African-American listeners.

[I]t must be said that something was left on the table by not putting Franklin on the tube. The Atlanta mayor has tremendous appeal among all women, white as well as black.
