5. I haven't seen any here in Ga. I suspect the states where the negs are
running are the ones the Pubs think they can win. Odd that they're not running in Ga. They must think they have Ga. in the bag!

9. Okay, I just saw #2
They just aired a second one after Letterman ended.

Still, I would have thought they would be fighting harder for Minnesota. I don't see a lot of McCain ads here. Maybe they know that Minnesota is gonna stay BLUE!! Makes no sense why they aired three in Vermont. ?!?

11. Oops, I just saw you said FOUR in Vermont. Sheesh!
What is up with THAT?!? We'll see if they air anymore here the rest of the show. I realize I said earlier they aired one after Letterman "ended" - I meant after the final segment with Barack.

10. I'm in NC. There was 1 McCain ad and 1 Obama Ad
Edited on Wed Sep-10-08 11:36 PM by elkston
The McCain ad was the one that talked about how Obama was going to raise taxes, and how he was strongly allied with all those nasty Democratic leaders!!! (heh)

The Obama ad was the "More of the Same" jingle with all the photos of Bush & McCain together.

14. The 2 McCain ads here...
They aired the same ad both times. It's the new one where they are both "mavericks" - claiming she stopped the Bridge to Nowhere, blah, blah, blah.

20. here in FL
Edited on Wed Sep-10-08 11:41 PM by themartyred
1 anti-Obama (CGI movie like ad making fun of Denver Convention), 2 pro-McCain ads about them being mavericks (also CGI, no motion, just like the anti-Obama ad) and 2 "the Same" anti McCain ads (it's a great ad with bush!), which is the best of the 3, as it points out on everything McCain would be the SAME as bush... love it... the pro-mccain one is just so ridiculous! tries to make them seem like boxers or fighters, just so overdone...
