From now on, this will be a mainstay in Presidential politics. Some in the GOP want their convention moved back, so their nominee can get his/her money sooner.


The Obama campaign was revolutionary in many, many ways.


That ad basically won him Ohio. And it aired in July.

WilLIARd - that gave them a serious head start because Rmoney used money to eliminate the others and clearly the Obama team knew he would do just that.

Timing is everything - additionally the Obama team were consistent while WilLIArd and his amateurs were responding to the winning team ad nauseum.

Dang... the Obama and his super-pac team were good!

Bleak, depressing, and scary. How am I going to feed my family?
I hope things turned around for Mr. Earnest and Marion, Indiana.
