Plus, their ads are really good. They appeal to the people who already support them, they sway the undecideds, and they demotivate the opposition.
These folks do bring the A game...!

I remember the first response to Palin was a bit poor because they were caught so off guard. But they must have been expecting Ryan since Thursday when Romney said he wanted a VP with a "vision for the country".

the door once the pick was made. It will be on the air Saturday or Sunday.
