Obama's unprecedented Pennsylvania ad buy
PHILADELPHIA -- If, as has been widely predicted, Barack Obama loses Pennsylvania, it will not be for lack of effort.
Obama is currently spending $2.2 million per week on television here, over twice what Hillary Clinton is spending and an unprecedented ad buy in Pennsylvania, according to Democratic media consultant Neil Oxman, who is not working for a candiadte.
"Nobody has ever spent 2.2 million in this state: not Rendell, not Specter, not Casey, not Santorum, not Bush, not Kerry," said Oxman, naming the best-funded candidates to run statewide in recent years. "That's unbelievable."

the former "outsider" is going to bury
hillary beneath an avalanche of TV advertising. it's odd how
things have come about 360 degrees in just a few months.
I suppose if he wins PA, it could be considered a "knockout blow", so it's probably worth it. and besides, I think this
is money that he can't spend in the general, anyway.
