TV Attack Ads Aim at Obama Early and Often

[alp227]

Nearly a year before Election Day, Republican presidential candidates and conservative action groups are already spending heavily on television advertising aimed at casting Mr. Obama as a failure.

Their tactics, the aggressive and sometimes misleading kind not typically used until much further along in a campaign season, have led to a spat with Democrats in what is shaping up to be the most costly election advertising war yet.

In an advertisement from Gov. Rick Perry of Texas that is now running on national cable television, Mr. Perry looks directly into the camera and declares: “Obama’s socialist policies are bankrupting America. We must stop him now.”

Total television advertising spending on the 2012 election cycle could top $3 billion, up from $2.1 billion four years ago, Kantar estimates, fueled in part by the rise of independent groups that can raise and spend unlimited amounts of money on campaigns.

1. Absolutely...the FUCKING MEDIA is so ANTI-OBAMA it makes me PUKE!

Thanks you for posting this.

I just can't understand the RW Media...NYT, WAPO, WSJ and the rest of them. Fucking WHORES! Owned by the MSM and you can't believe a word out of their whore mouths.

BUT...let's not forget the Blogosphere like HuffPo, TPM, Firedoglake, Glenn Greenwald (what a whore) and the rest of "Salon Magazine" and other whore sites that have been (thankfully) BANNED by DU.

Disgusting Freeper type Whore Media Sites.

The truth is bad enough, but they don't consider that stuff failure.
