Ok.
So Obama is pretty much killing McCain in the polls right now. It would take a major upset for McCain to win at this point.
And yet, Obama's campaign decides that it is a good idea to run a 30 minute commercial, airing on a number of different channels.
The cost of running is by no means cheap. The cost of running a 30 minute add on 3 stations nation wide: a staggering minimum of $3.5 million, with it more likely being in the $4-$5 million range.
I'm sorry but for someone who is talking so much about poverty and ending this war because of costs to the nation and dreaming of the possibilities for that money to be used elsewhere, you sure are spending a lot of unnecessary money, are you not, Mr. Obama?
The cost of campaigns is disgusting to me as it is, but to do something like this makes me rethink my as-of-yet undecided vote.

Yeah, I was surprised to discover that he's fundraised almost twice as much as McCain:

It's curious that the election is still as close as it is (I was expecting it to be Obama by a mile. . .)
