GOP to air TV ads in Indiana

From NBC's Chuck Todd and Mark Murray
First Read has learned from TV ad-buying sources that the Republican National Committee's independent expenditure unit is active again. And it will launch a nearly $5 million advertising blitz beginning Tuesday in Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and -- get this -- Indiana.

This is the first evidence we've seen that the GOP is now targeting the Hoosier State, a state Bush won 60%-39% in 2004.

REDNECK-definition, a non Obamaniac, or one that doesn't think that saying the word "change" means anything unless you have some new kind of platform, not just the same tired old one the DNC has had for 50 years

Bring it on in Wisconsin.

After months of being ripped by my co-workers, they started apologizing to me this week.

Between McCain's panic attack of the last two weeks and Palin's interviews have turned the tide.

McCain team has not given up on their ads, not even when they used the word "suspend" the ads were still running. Talk about two face. McCain not presidential!

McCain is going to Crash and Burn just like the Incompetent Pilot and Diminished POW he is. I think he wanted Obama to win all along. Even Huckabee spoke out against the way McCain handled the debate situation. What the hell are McCain's Advisors doing?
Obama is probably thinking HA HA HA HA Nov. 4 can't come soon enough.

Obama/Biden
