Candidate and Interest Groups Ads from April - October

Over $368 million was spent from April 3 to Oct. 20, 2008 to broadcast over 290 ads, according to statistics compiled by Campaign Media Analysis Group, which tracks political advertising expenditures. This site is rather amazing. Just click on the candidate or interest group and it will tell you how much was spent and you can see (and play) all of their commercials (in case you and your students haven't had your fill yet!).
