More and More Ads

According to USA today, Obama has spent over 230 million on television. He is now working on having thirty minute long ads which will air on CBS, NBC and Fox. According to the article, "The three 30-minute ads, which cost Obama nearly $1 million apiece, mark the first time in 16 years that a White House hopeful has aired commercials that length on broadcast networks." Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe, is trying to target the states in which George Bush won during his campaign four years ago. McCain cannot compete with Obama when it comes to television ads and that is because Obama has spent way more money than McCain did. According to USA today, McCain has only spent about 84.1 million dollars so far on ads. If McCain wishes to persuade more voters to vote for him, he needs to step up and focus more on his television ads. For more information on this issue, visit Obama Ads Overwhelm TV presence of McCain.
