Obama's TV Ads Work in Pa.
A blogger on the PPP site (the polling group that gave Obama the lead in Pa. yesterday) had something interesting to say about Obama's TV campaign, though he wishes TV wasn't so effective. For Obama supporters, the message is keep sending money.
I live in Pennsylvania and I support Obama. But, it just seems that as soon as the advertisements started running on TV, the polls reflected the shift. The power of TV is undeniable but I would wish that the electorate were more sophisticated or that TV were less persuasive. Alas, welcome to American politics.

If they're some of the same ads that they showed me, then they're very uplifting. But, though I haven't been monitoring the tracking polls, I think when he actually got to PA, it probably had more of an effect or at least it appears that way from what I've seen of local PA coverage.
