Have you seen a McCain ad on broadcast TV this month?
Edited on Thu Jun-26-08 10:38 PM by Eric J in MN
An Obama ad?

I'm in MN, and I've only seen a McCain ad (claiming he stood up to Bush on global warming) on broadcast TV. No Obama ads since we had our caucus in February.

By "broadcast" in the thread title, I mean not-cable-TV. Cable TV ad buys are generally national.

1. I've seen the McCain global warming one and his "I hate war" one.
It was on cable news so I'm not sure it was a local buy or not. It would be interesting if it was because I'm in Arizona.

3. I saw one on..

..the Military channel. Didn't stay on the channel to watch it, but I was thinking, "Why the f*** is he advertising on the military channel???? If he can't count on the military vote, he's in sad shape."

4. Here in Michigan (home of the FUBAR) we're seeing McCain ads almost daily ...
... and Obama ads only slightly less frequently. I suppose it depends a great deal on how much TeeVee and what channels one watches, though. (I'm a typical DU cable news junkie ... CNN, MSNBC, CSPAN.)

5. McCain is wasting his money
He doesn't get his first general election campaign check until September. He would be wise to save it up for the attacks Obama might launch on him in July and August.
