So, is Michigan a draw?

9. They've already spent $3.39 million there

In case you had any doubt about which state will be the juiciest prize on Super Tuesday, the campaigns are giving a clear answer through their ad spending: it’s Ohio.

Two sources monitoring the air war point out that the battle for the Buckeye State has already cost well over $4 million in paid media – closer to $5 million, actually, for a state where the candidates haven’t spent much time, where primary day is still a week away. (Early voting is already in progress.)

According to one tally, the Romney campaign and Restore Our Future have put a total of $3.39 million into Ohio, versus a total of $527,000 for the Santorum camp and the Red White & Blue Fund. The pro-Gingrich super PAC Winning Our Future has put in $430,000.

Add to that the $360,000 TV campaign that AFSCME is running against Romney and that’s above $4.7 million in television and radio ads.
