Obama collects $32 million in January

Obama collects $32 million in January

WASHINGTON - Barack Obama raised a staggering $32 million during January, providing an infusion of money to pay for costly television advertising in next week's Super Tuesday Democratic presidential primary elections and for the states that follow, his aides said Thursday.

The Obama campaign has led the Democratic field in television advertising so far, with the Illinois senator airing $22.7 million worth of television ads to $18.7 million for rival Sen. Hillary Clinton through Jan. 27, according to a study to be released Friday.

But while the Clinton and Obama campaigns have maintained a rough parity on the Democratic side, Mitt Romney dominated the airwaves on the Republican side, spending more on television commercials than all of his rivals combined.


I personally believe that commercials dont even make an impact on voters because usually they just say mean things about the rival competition and just in the end make them selves look bad.
