Today we're getting pounded in NC with McCain and RNC ads blaming Obama and the Democrats
for the crisis. He also has one claiming Obama played with the lives of troops with Biden in it criticizing the votes against spending.

WHERE are the new Obama ones?

1. Desperation. Reaction to the polls
showing Obama has a shot in NC. He should definitely get some ads on ASAP.

10. Exactly, desperation.
Can you imagine the ripple effect if Obama takes NH, VA, and NC.

How would that effect the vote in CO, NV, NM, etc., etc.??

Don't worry, they'll be on top of it.

I have been in awe of the flexibility and response time of this campaign.

2. I'm in upstate NY (so assume I'm seeing national buys?)

And I see McCain ads about twice every morning...they are also anti-Obama ones, not pro-McCain ads. I saw the Biden one yesterday, very lame. I saw the two minute Obama ad last night on CNN, but I very rarely see Obama ads.

3. No offense, but I'd ratehr McCain spend money in NC than Michigan and Penn
If we pick up states like NC and Florida, that's great. but just getting McCain to spend money there is a victory. he absolutely CAN'T afford to lose them. Win-win.

6. You hit the nail on the head

All the time and money McDummy has to spend in states he should be winning is a victory for Obama.

I just thought of something. Maybe we can get McDonald's to introduce a new sandwich called the McDummy with a likeness of Palin on it.

5. When does Obama start spending the money we all sent him?
He should start blowing through the cash now, big time. I don't live in a battleground state, but I see the cable ad buys, and I almost never see Obama ads. See a lot of McLoser ads, though.

7. Obama lets them build to a crescendo
he lets them get all the way to the end of their rope, let's them run wild with their claims until EVERYBODY has heard them---

and then he blasts them out of the water in one clear shot.

Quit worrying.

8. I live in Nevada
I see Obama ads all the time. Especially at night after 9pm when most folks are watching the news. I see them through the day as well but there is a saturation of Obama ads at night.

9. Instead of Democrats getting on TV and fighting hard with
the point that that it was the GENERAl Deregulation in Business and
Financial Markets that created Chaos. Right now the story going
out frequently on Fox and other Channels. They are blaming the Dems
and Fannie Mae. The GOP will turn this election around and Dems
will lose House and Senate if our party does not wake up and
smell the coffee.

Just because the Democrats say something on the floor in House
and Senate--not effective. The Democrats cannot depend on the
Reporters to carry their message. They had best get on TV and
do their own battles. Otherwise, I assume they do not care.
