If this has already been diaried, I will gladly delete, but tonight as I had the tv on in the background I heard an ad by the National Republican Trust PAC attacking Obama over Rev. Wright. It included an image of Obama, some trite nonsense about Obama's supposedly close relationship with Wright, and video imagery of Wright we've all seen ad nauseum. The final tagline was to the effect of "Obama - too radical, too risky." The ad aired on NBC, primetime, during Deal or No Deal.
I had heard they took out the ad in PA, OH and FL, but I'm sitting here in Seattle, WA, the bluest part of a very blue state with local cable. Was this a local buy (if so, why the heck are they buying in Washington?) or did they purchase national airtime for this ad?
Truly, if this is a national ad buy, this is the stench of desperation.
