Both campaigns have decreased spending on commercials in Missouri.
Both campaigns have decreased spending on commercials in Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, Missouri (CNN) – As the battle for the swing state of Missouri heat up, both presidential campaigns seem to be retreating from the airwaves here.

Over the past few weeks, Barack Obama and John McCain both decreased spending on campaign commercials in Missouri, site of tonight’s vice presidential debate – a confusing move, given the crucial 11 electoral votes on the line in this bellwether state.

Twenty-four hours ago, recent polling and other factors prompted the CNN Political Team to officially change the state’s status on the CNN Electoral Map from “lean McCain” to “tossup.”

But the good news for Obama comes as his campaign has decreased its ad spending in the “Show Me State” by about $24,000 from the third week in September to the fourth week, according to an analysis for CNN of campaign commercials in Missouri by TNSMI-Campaign Media Analysis Group. There is an even more dramatic cut apparent from the second week of September to the month’s final seven days: over that period, the campaign’s ad spending in the state dropped from $456,000 to $332,000.

For his part, McCain’s high-level mark for ad spending in Missouri in September came during the second week, when he spent more than $286,000. But the Republican presidential nominee’s campaign cut spending to just a hair over $96,000 in the month’s final week. While McCain was off the air for two days that week after announcing he would be suspending his campaign, his spending on ads has been on an overall downward trajectory here – a point his campaign spokesman acknowledges.

“There is no question Barack Obama has greater resources in this campaign, but John McCain’s record of making change and reforming government will be able to break through in states like Missouri,” said Tucker Bounds, McCain’s spokesman. “There is a threshold of support for John McCain in the state of Missouri that will hold, and strategically speaking we are allocating our resources throughout the country wherever they are most effective.”


A spokesman for Obama refused to discuss the campaign’s ad spending strategy.

So why has the needle moved in Obama’s direction in Missouri at the same time he has decreased his ad spending? The campaign may not be talking, but a few likely factors jump out.

First, McCain’s reduction in ad spending has given Obama the room to cut his own buy, said Evan Tracey, CMAG’s chief operating officer and CNN’s political advertising consultant. Second, CNN Polling Director Keating Holland suggests that McCain is suffering politically from the financial crisis and by being tied to President Bush. Specifically, in the agricultural state of Missouri, farmers operate on credit, which has been frozen - and recent retirees, who have yet to move their money out of the stock market, might be laying blame for the current crisis on the president’s party.

Still, Obama’s ad spending in Missouri appears to run counter to his overall ad strategy.

“The state of Missouri is going against his national trends where we have seen steady rises across the board in battleground states,” Tracey says. “In Missouri, it has been sort of flat.”

Given the recent movement in the polls that seems to signal the state is within reach, perhaps Obama will reverse course and pour more money in the closing weeks into the “Show Me State.”

MikeH   October 2nd, 2008 3:57 pm ET

Heading into the final stretch.

McCain lied again today when he said he suspended campaigning last week and pulled his ads. He did not, lie, lie, lie. Just like when he told Letterman he had to catch a flight back to Washington, and Letterman ended up putting the video feed of McCain, still in New York interviewing with Couric.

It will be interesting to see if Palin tries to sneak her color-coded cue cards into her debate tonight.

How much money did John McCain's son, Andrews McCain who was CEO of the failed Silver Bank, get as a parachute package when he left 2 months prior to it's calaspe. John McCain aka Keating 5 took Lincoln Savings and Loan for $3.6 billion dollars and taxpayers paid the bill. FACT.

Michigan Voter   October 2nd, 2008 3:55 pm ET

Dear Rob: There's a national economic crisis, people are losing their homes, and retirement accounts, unemployment is high, we're in an unresolved 'War On Terror' and a $Billions$ debacle in Iraq, and we have no energy policy and your logic tells you to vote for the same policies and insult those who disagree.

Proud to be a Obama/Biden supporter.

rita   October 2nd, 2008 3:54 pm ET

I think Obama should spend more in the "hot" states as we get closer to election day. That way his message will get through until the last vote is cast. It's ok for him to lay back now, because his presence in those states in his rallies are enough for now.

I also think Obama should make himself available to the news media (cnn, etc), and get more of his message out now. It seems McCain is hitting all the political talk stations to give his views and (questionable facts) out to the public. We need to hear more from Obama.

As far as the vp debate goes, I hope Biden buries Palin. She should not be treated with kid gloves, because if it were Hillary, you KNOW the republicans would not hold back.
Good luck JOE! GO FOR IT!!

PS. McCain please pack your bags and go to one of your homes. We've had enough.

karen-phoenix   October 2nd, 2008 3:53 pm ET

As a 40 year republican I'm sooo ashamed of McCain and the republican party for what they have done to MY country!!! McCain pull out!!! Obama/Biden understand that recovery will begin from the bottom up–jobs, jobs, and more jobs! THAT STAY IN THE USA!

Susan
many of us wish Hillary was on the ticket as well. But know this, it can't be said now publicly by the Obama camp for obvious reasons....
Hillary will have a very important role of her choosing when President Obama takes the reign in Jan 20th 2009. Obama needs Hillary and Bill to repair the mess of the last 8yrs. So not to worry, she is on board..
Just Vote Obama/Biden and lets turn the "show me state" :)

Travis in St. Louis, MO   October 2nd, 2008 3:41 pm ET

No matter what the polls say, Missouri will very much be up for grabs right up until the polls close. It's strictly a matter of who will get out the vote here. Elections here are extremely close. Obama beat Clinton in the primary by less than 1%, and I predict the same margin for November. Both campaigns will have to fight hard to take this state. And remember, St. Louis has a large African-American population and the city is notoriously late in counting votes, so anyone who calls the state before midnight is a fool Just ask Hillary Clinton!

Rob   October 2nd, 2008 3:39 pm ET

My question to all of those who are for the failed community organizer and the plagarist...oops, I'm sorry, The Anointed One and his lackey...Dang, sorry again, Obama and Biden is this: Were you born with this mental deficiancy that keeps you from using any sense of logic or were you perhaps hit on the head, or did you heavily experiment with mind alterring drugs? It makes no sense how anyone can sit here and say with a straight face that Obama can lead this country. There is no way on God's green Earth (or for that matter any other planet) that anyone would let someone with as little experience be in charge of anything bigger than a lemonade stand.

The man failed as a community organizer, one walk through the south side of Chicago at night and (if you live) you'll see what a mess he left of that. He comes from the same crooked political machine that has given Illinois its current and soon to be convicted governor. In the 3 months that he's actually been doing the job he was elected to he has proven himself to be the most liberal congressman, and (at least in the eyes of Fannie and Freddie) the most in special interests' pockets.

Plain and simple – go with Obama – say goodbye to prosperity in America. Say goodbye to security in America. Pretty much – say goodbye to America.

Obama = Pelosi   October 2nd, 2008 3:38 pm ET

Obama is not running questionable ads – he is running intentional lies and smears - In PA he blames McCain for a television plan closing – a LIE He blames McCain for shipping jobs to Bermuda – LIE Obama's campaign in Chicago actually rents office space from a Bermuda COmpany that specializes in outsourcing jobs to Bermuda - So Obama is not only lying and smearing but also he is a hypocrite -- The guy is dangerous for America – he brings his big tax package and he bankrupts us -– Some family of 6 might get a $75 credit, and then it costs the family;s bread winner his job -- Wrong Decision Wrong Choice Just Wrong for America

John McLie   October 2nd, 2008 3:35 pm ET

More of the same from John McShame

John McLame says, “I don’t know much about the economy, I still need to be educated”

“It would be acceptable if we had to stay in Iraq for another 100 years.”

We need to “bomb, bomb, and bomb Iran”

“I have voted with Bush 90% of the time because he has been right 90% of the time”

Sarah Failin says,

“I have foreign policy experience because you can see Russia from Alaska and I went to Mexico on vacation once.”

“I welcome any investigation into my past because I have nothing to hide, oh never mind I will not meet with any investigators for any reason ever.”

She believes the Bush Doctrine is a “World View” hahaha

She says she said “No Thanks” for the Bridge to nowhere when she was actually the one who got it approved

She says we may have to go to war WITH RUSSIA

She decreased her own responsibilities when she was the mayor of a town small enough to be run by a fifth grader

You may be able to hide Sarah Palin from the people and the press because she it too incompetent to answer any questions BUT YOU…You CAN”T HIDE FOREVER sooner or later the debates will happen and you will have NO WHERE TO HIDE!!!!

McCain is running ads in Kentucky, and I sure wish he would pull out of our state. It is interesting, though. Kentucky is supposed to be a shoo-in, but Obama has reduced McCain's lead from 30% to 12%. That's very significant for a place like Kentucky. It's the economy.

As the 'Paign Turns   October 2nd, 2008 3:32 pm ET

Well maybe that means that they still expect McCain to win Missouri even though from what I've heard Obama has the lead. I mean if a Republican is still having to spend money and campaign in Missouri in October, it's over and he knows it.

strange that CNN is not reporting that McCain is pulling out of Michagan. I guess McCain is going to put more resourses in states that are typically republican but Obama is making a play for like VA, FL and OH. Lets not be complacent and work hard to bring home for Obama.

McCain change in government (no regulations against big business – which I'm sure goes along with Cindy's policies) is what got us into this financial mess in the first place. Of course with his 5 Trust Funds that Cindy set up for him, McCain thought the fundamentals of the economy were sound - well at least his and Cindy's were. And who needs equal pay for women when you're wife is already a megamillionare. Who needs a woman's right to choose when you left your 3 kids you already had with your first crippled wife.

We need to be reminded of who the true heros of our country are and it certainly isn't John McCain. Being a POW does not a war hero make not does it make you experienced to be President.

I am voting for the most intelligent, calm, rational candidate, the one who takes the time to think before he makes a decision rather than just blurting out a statement before putting brain in gear. There is absolutely nothing the McCain camp could pull out of their hat at this time to make me change my mind.

If creation were true, there would be more than 2000 creation possibilities because each and every small community and tribe in the world has one. It is just that the Jewish one happened to be adopted by Northen Europeans when they embraced Christianity.

Thanks Katie,

She revived her career and tore Sarah to shreds by just asking her everyday VP questions. McCain kept Sarah away from the press for three whole weeks before her first interview. What the heck was she studying (different angles she could see Alaska from her house)?

So when she finally gave an interview, she's Miss Ping Pong, taking our minds all over the political map. I looked at my husband and he just laughed and kept saying "What did she just say?" I told him who knows, McCain is a fool.

So once again, thanks Katie, you're a true American. You did what Charlie and Sean couldn't do. Poor Sarah, she couldn't disarm you, like she disarmed those guys.

"McCain says his life changed while he was in Vietnam, and he is now a different man," Dramesi says today. "But he's still the undisciplined, spoiled brat that he was when he went in."

OUCH!! I'd like to see that in a commercial and see how the McCain campaign tries to spin it since McCain is on the record admiring Dramesi.

EBC, Boyds, MD   October 2nd, 2008 3:16 pm ET

MISSOURI better WAKE UP AND SMELL THE JAVA!! Sen. McCain is selling nothing but "snow balls". He's been lying through his dentures this man. I hope and pray Missourians are SMARTER than the average "pitt bulls".

Missouri has a LOT to lose if McCain is elected bottom line. He will discard Missourians when he gets in the White House. Bottom line.

Rob   October 2nd, 2008 3:15 pm ET

Can we spell LOSER ! They are lucky he's leaving them alone .Wish he'd leave everyone alone

The McCain camp tried to paint the picture of Palin from the start as this "perfect" person who would swoop in and do wonderful things. However, as facts continue to come out on her and we hear her actually talk without a teleprompter we are repainting that picture of her. She is not the person the McCain camp tried to portray. She has 2 ethics investigations going on against her in Alaska, she received gifts from lobbyist and other special interest people, she charged per diem to stay in her own home, and just yesterday a new poll in Alaska shows her approval rating dropping by double digits. The McCain camp was successful at first of their portrayal but the media is doing there job to tell us the real story and the McCain camp is angry about it.

aware   October 2nd, 2008 3:15 pm ET

Missouri?

Obama and his smooth talk sure can shmooze the fans he wants to manipulate! But, his values are not mainstream American values! :(

Vote for McCain/Palin 08 if you want the authentic reform and straight talk America needs! They will deliver for a better America! :)

KJL   October 2nd, 2008 3:14 pm ET

McCain is starting to whine, while Obama delivers his message. McCain should go home to one of his many houses and enjoy life, and leave politics to the grown-ups.

tulsa   October 2nd, 2008 3:14 pm ET

my two cents.

The next time McCain says "He doesn't understand...", The jr Senator from IL. should look him in the eye (if McCain would LOOK him in the eye) and say;
"Senator, I have been respectful, courtious and patient with you. I have given you due when you deserved it. That is how I am and that is how the President of the United States should be. But now I have to say that it is YOU who don't understand. You have lied and been disrespectful to Senator Biden and myself and in truth, to this Nation. You sir are WRONG. The fact you are sinking in the polls is due to your incompetence in everything you have done in this campaign. Not because "life is not fair".

As for Palin, Joe, ignore her and address McCain. You know him as well or better than anyone in the Senate. You are honest, he is not.

Republican Supporters in the Dark   October 2nd, 2008 3:14 pm ET

Prediction: McCain campaign is going to (is already in free fall) crash and burn, then sink like a 100 ton lead ball into an abyss, never to return. Ta-taa.

Tom in CA   October 2nd, 2008 3:14 pm ET

John McCain is pulling out of Michigan. An interesting move only a month away from Election Day. This indicates the difficulty McCain is having in finding states to put in play.

Are departures from Missouri and Indiana next?

Super D   October 2nd, 2008 3:14 pm ET

If you are Obama the socialist, why spend money in this state?

You're already commiting voter fraud in Ohio with ACORN. So let's just get that Democrat Machine over to Mizzou and start registering dead people and children to go vote for the socialist.

Lisa, MI   October 2nd, 2008 3:13 pm ET

If John had spent half the time he's spending on this campaign with his first three kids, he'd be the better man. But he did not, and he is not the better man. He left his wife and kids to have several rolls in the hay with that beer bimbo, Cindy Lou. Now he wants us to forget about that part of his past and think about the WAR HERO part. Hello? What hero, he's a zero for leaving his wife and kids.

Okay America, if you want some angry-guilt ridden man at the nuclear button, vote for McBulldozer, and his trophies–Cindy and Sarah.

I'm voting for the man who had one wife and did NOT leave his kids to have an affair.

Helene   October 2nd, 2008 3:13 pm ET

Susan : I also wish Hillary was chosen but this is not the case. The important issue in front of us is to follow Hillary's wishes : To elect Obama. Let's not lose sight of the importance of this election,

Casper   October 2nd, 2008 3:12 pm ET

Sarah will wear her hair down tonight to hide the earpiece wired from under the bandage on her hand. You heard it here first...

david   October 2nd, 2008 3:12 pm ET

Hey, I know McCain suspended his campaign. So when did he restartt it again? I havent seen the press conference yet

Jeff Brown   October 2nd, 2008 3:12 pm ET

Cranky old fart!

STL-Veteran   October 2nd, 2008 3:12 pm ET

The fact is McCain is just going to Hope and Pray he pulls out Missouri, he needs to pull money out somewhere so that he can try and compete in FL and OH, bad move because even thought his state tends to be conservative people vote with their wallets in mind.

FOR YOU CNN   October 2nd, 2008 3:11 pm ET

You said it : "No bias no bull" You voted yourself : "CNN the most

trusted name in news". Your really sound loke a bad ECHO-ECHO

echo-echo....repeat...repeat......until the story is echoed to death. SO

we vote you "CNN the most visible and the most unbelievable name

in news.........GO ahead and print......

Dutch-VA   October 2nd, 2008 3:11 pm ET

Spending less money and changed the state from leaning McCain to a toss-up. Very WISE. I thought the wisdom would come from McSame.........NOT

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Gaffney in Columbia   October 2nd, 2008 3:11 pm ET

Tucker Bounds could give Baghdad Bob a run for his money in the world of spinning the unspinnable.

My question to some of McCain's shameless spinners is this: Where do you plan to work when this is all over and you and your candidate are officially shunned by America? Fox News can only hire so many people.

david   October 2nd, 2008 3:11 pm ET

Man, Tucker Bounds. LMAO

Where did they get that guy from?

When McCain losses, everyone should know McCain choose kindergarteners to run his campaign.

And whatever that femal's name is who is always on TV really hits it out of the park as far as not knowing anything.! She's even worse than Palin

ABG   October 2nd, 2008 3:10 pm ET

I wish Hillary was VP too!

Charlotte   October 2nd, 2008 3:10 pm ET

I don't know where some people get these long drawn out stories, they have be hired if you ask me.

Fred   October 2nd, 2008 3:10 pm ET

Maybe it's because McCain is ashamed of his choice for VP
in case she puts her foot in her lip gloss tonight

Rick   October 2nd, 2008 3:10 pm ET

Yes Obama has greater resources – he lied and pulled out of public financing so he can raise unlimited amounts from all those ordinary citizens who otherwise can't afford the mortgage.

ANGIE   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

I live in pa can he pull his tv ads out of my state its pretty annoying when your watching tv and one of his LYING ADS ABOUT OBAMA FULL OF LIES COME ON I leave the room and wait for it to end PLEASE MCCAIN PULL OUT OF PA YOU AINT GETTING THIS STATE!

Ex-Republican for Obama   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

We the people are the best marketing Obama has. BREAK THE GRID LOCK and turn them blue.

Let's do our part, stand proud and make it known that Obama is with out doubt, the only answer we have in this election. Get the word out...it's time to step up and work for our next President, he is OUR leader and we must get him elected for the good of our country!

hmm   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

MCCAIN IS PULLING OUT OF MICHIGAN!

jaye   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

I never watch McCain commercials – I find it too hard listening to his voice and hearing his lies.
He has been the biggest disappointment in the history of elections... not only his misleading lies, but also his VP choice.
I hope he loses this election.

Victor from MI   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

McCain is pulling out of Palin....OOOPS did I say that?

Jen   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

CNN you might want to report by far the biggest news of the day so far which is that McCain is pulling out of Michigan. Ouch McCain..

mikki h.   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

I have been noticing in the political arena that as usual "comedy" slams are going strong especially against Sarah Palin. Try one against Obama and Al Sharpton will be screaming racial slur...

Brandon, MI   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

As a previous poster stated, McCain is FULLY pulling out of MI. This sinking ship is a joy to watch.

Politico has the story about him pulling out of Michigan.

Margaret   October 2nd, 2008 3:09 pm ET

Now I know why Republicans didn’t like McCain—he’s a jerk. The one good thing about presidential elections is you’re able to see your candidate up close and personal. I can’t tell you how much of McCain I see and I don’t like. He comes off as a snotty-nosed know-it-all, who will say and do anything to win. This morning he was on Fox Noise, and they told him he would have to start attacking Barack Obama. Before they could finish the sentence, guess what, McCain starts attacking Barack Obama. What a Neanderthal.

Thank God America is seeing McCain for what he really is– someone who would give the keys to the country to a 12-year old. He thinks we’re idiots, and he’ll be back in Congress before you can say “In what way, Charlieeeeeeeeeeeeee?”

Don’t give in to dictators of any kind America. Fight crazy kooks, and take our country back.

Patrick Henry   October 2nd, 2008 3:08 pm ET

People in MI know can read and write.
They know who has been holing true to their principles–and who has been casting aside, and rescripting their agenda–to try to woo voters.

I think the people of Missouri know where to place thier faith–and it won't be with Obama and his 36 yr. tenured Senator touting a false message of change.

What we need is reform, reconstruction–and that has to be from the top down!

Will Wine Work the Same as a Six Pack   October 2nd, 2008 3:08 pm ET

Question: Will Wine work to get you as drunk as a well a "Six Pack". I think either one will help you UNDERSTAND Sarah Palin's point of view better. Because in order for her comments to make sense "either I have to be drunk or stoned".

GINA, OHIO   October 2nd, 2008 3:08 pm ET

MCCAIN/PALIN "TICKET TO NO WHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

OBAMA IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MAN FOR THE JOB!

Eric   October 2nd, 2008 3:08 pm ET

I guess McCain received a phone call from Hillary, advising him not to spend too much. Never wise to end up broke and a loser.

Margaret, IN   October 2nd, 2008 3:07 pm ET

Now I know why Republicans didn’t like McCain—he’s a jerk. The one good thing about presidential elections is you’re able to see your candidate up close and personal.

Doug R.   October 2nd, 2008 3:07 pm ET

McCain drew a crowd of about 100 in Illinois a month or so ago. He doesn't stand a chance of winning that state. That's Obama's home state.

Steve   October 2nd, 2008 3:07 pm ET

McCain is a candidate "for change"? Hmmmm....I wonder where he got that idea? McCain is cutting his spending because someone on his team has finally told him that each time one of his brittle and shrill ads runs, he loses votes. Pelple are tired of hearing his complaining. He has based his entire campaign on telling us the horrible things Obama represents, and showing outrate when he's asked to explain himself. Mr. McCain needs to realize he's not running for King. He's running to be a representative of the American people. He cannot get angry and shout "Off with their heads!" The days of imperial Republicanism are coming quickly to an end.

Donna   October 2nd, 2008 3:07 pm ET

Tucker Bounds is the most puerile, odious fool imaginable. While McCain's pick of Palin says the most about his poor judgment, his use of Bounds indicates a fair amount as well.

Ted, MD   October 2nd, 2008 3:07 pm ET

McCain is a weasel and he knows it. Anyone who goes on television and says he’s been telling the truth 100% of the time wants to lose the election. In fact, he should not only lose the presidential election, but his bid for Senator as well.

I’m a Hillary Democrat, who was going to vote for McCain, but I’m changing back over—ENOUGH.

Lorna, NY   October 2nd, 2008 3:06 pm ET

He should pull out of every state. I am tired of his antics.

Ben - Portland, Or   October 2nd, 2008 3:06 pm ET

Florida is probably a big factor. McCain can't win without it, and Obama's going to make him spend his money there hoping that the economic issues will work like free advertising for the Democratic Party in states where they're pulling back. I also think the McCain camp is short on cash and saving up for an ad blitz in the last 2 weeks... in fact, I think that's what the "suspended campaign" was all about, McCain's money, not Wall Street or Main Street... that and trying to find a way to ditch Palin for anybody else.... I'm available. I used to fish in the Gulf of Mexico, and my favorite restaurant is a Lebanese place, so I've got a little foreign policy experience under my belt.

Barney   October 2nd, 2008 3:06 pm ET

Susan – don't worry – Hillary will have a very nice position when Obama is Pres.

If (God Forbid) the other guy happens to win, Hillary gets nothing. Your vote is precious. Use it wisely, not with pride or vengence.

Louis   October 2nd, 2008 3:06 pm ET

Dear Johnny, The game is over. Thanks for playing.

Eric   October 2nd, 2008 3:05 pm ET

Can someone please explain how a network can quote Tucker Bounds. This guy has made a fool of himself multiple times on national tv, still journalists treat what he says as if there were information in it.

By the way, CNN, why don't you report on McCain pulling out of Michigan. That's new, considering we are four weeks before the election.

Cam   October 2nd, 2008 3:05 pm ET

Tucker Bounds talking should be enough to swing at least 10% of the voting public over to Obama......I mean, he is just an idiot. Campbell Brown shredded him.

I think the best part of this sinking ship that is the McCain campaign is that the mainstays of the Republican party, like RudE Guliani, Fred Thompson, and Mitt Romney have all raped their own political credibility by jumping on the Palin bandwagon.

In particular I hate Guliani. If I were McCain, I would not have this loser speaking for him at all. He is a condescending goon. His performance at the RNC should cement his reputation as all that is wrong with the Republican party. McCain`s lying and whining are another shining example that a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

Annie   October 2nd, 2008 3:05 pm ET

Wonder if McCain is going to run the one with Joe Biden's gaffes. I want to know why McCain & Co. can pick on Biden but Obama & Co. can't pick on Palin. If McCain wants life to be fair, I want to see some commercials with Palin unable to understand or answer simple questions. Or get the drilling all the other candidates have endured.

Cyrus K.   October 2nd, 2008 3:04 pm ET

Tucker...you have the IQ of a hookworm. Your campaign is not talking about "reform" in Missouri. The Missouri Republican committee and your campaign are telling white voters about the "danger" of a black president. Good luck with the BS.

Coop182   October 2nd, 2008 3:03 pm ET

It's encouraging to see that a state like Missouri can wise up and see that McCain's lies are to be avoided. I'm for the man who can tell me what he plans to do, rather than the one who tells me why I should not vote for the other guy.

I'm for steady leadership – I'm for Obama.

Emily   October 2nd, 2008 3:03 pm ET

Good. They weren't commercials anyway, they were just an excuse
to spit out lie after lie. I have never seen such a dirty, low excuse for a person as John McCain has become. He is beneath contempt.

I wouldn't care if he had 10 x the e xperience as Obama, he totally
lacks character and integrity. He should withdraw all his commercials, take the unqualified bubble-head he has been trying to ram down our throats and go home.

Nan   October 2nd, 2008 3:02 pm ET

Hopefully democrats will not take Missouri for granted. Election day is still a ways off.

Patty, CA   October 2nd, 2008 3:02 pm ET

Oh my goodness....the picture with this story speaks volumns....the old "maverick" with old ideas vs. the young "progressive" with new ideas.....in my mind there is no question who would make the best president....the old ideas have not worked, the new ones need to be tried.....oh yeah, I forgot, they already worked well for Clinton. Case closed.

Palin is plain dumb   October 2nd, 2008 3:02 pm ET

People watch tonight with an open mind. If Palin can not form a complete sentence or anwser the question ASKED of her then remember where you may be placing her in Nov. Our childrens lifes could end up in her hands. If you want to put your kids there, fine, but don't do that to mine.

McCain: the spoiled brat   October 2nd, 2008 3:02 pm ET

John McCain is a spoiled brat.

Read Rolling Stone's article about the REAL McCain:

At Fort McNair, an army base located along the Potomac River in the nation's capital, a chance reunion takes place one day between two former POWs. It's the spring of 1974, and Navy commander John Sidney McCain III has returned home from the experience in Hanoi that, according to legend, transformed him from a callow and reckless youth into a serious man of patriotism and purpose.

Walking along the grounds at Fort McNair, McCain runs into John Dramesi, an Air Force lieutenant colonel who was also imprisoned and tortured in Vietnam.

McCain is studying at the National War College, a prestigious graduate program he had to pull strings with the Secretary of the Navy to get into. Dramesi is enrolled, on his own merit, at the Industrial College of the Armed Forces in the building next door.

There's a distance between the two men that belies their shared experience in North Vietnam — call it an honor gap.

Like many American POWs, McCain broke down under torture and offered a "confession" to his North Vietnamese captors. Dramesi, in contrast, attempted two daring escapes. For the second he was brutalized for a month with daily torture sessions that nearly killed him. His partner in the escape, Lt. Col. Ed Atterberry, didn't survive the mistreatment. But Dramesi never said a disloyal word, and for his heroism was awarded two Air Force Crosses, one of the service's highest distinctions. McCain would later hail him as "one of the toughest guys I've ever met."

On the grounds between the two brick colleges, the chitchat between the scion of four-star admirals and the son of a prizefighter turns to their academic travels; both colleges sponsor a trip abroad for young officers to network with military and political leaders in a distant corner of the globe.

"I'm going to the Middle East," Dramesi says. "Turkey, Kuwait, Lebanon, Iran."

"Why are you going to the Middle East?" McCain asks, dismissively.

"It's a place we're probably going to have some problems," Dramesi says.

"Why? Where are you going to, John?"

"Oh, I'm going to Rio."

"What the hell are you going to Rio for?"

McCain, a married father of three, shrugs.

"I got a better chance of getting laid."

Dramesi, who went on to serve as chief war planner for U.S. Air Forces in Europe and commander of a wing of the Strategic Air Command, was not surprised. "McCain says his life changed while he was in Vietnam, and he is now a different man," Dramesi says today. "But he's still the undisciplined, spoiled brat that he was when he went in."

McCAIN FIRST

This is the story of the real John McCain, the one who has been hiding in plain sight. It is the story of a man who has consistently put his own advancement above all else, a man willing to say and do anything to achieve his ultimate ambition: to become commander in chief, ascending to the one position that would finally enable him to outrank his four-star father and grandfather.

In its broad strokes, McCain's life story is oddly similar to that of the current occupant of the White House. John Sidney McCain III and George Walker Bush both represent the third generation of American dynasties. Both were born into positions of privilege against which they rebelled into mediocrity. Both developed an uncanny social intelligence that allowed them to skate by with a minimum of mental exertion. Both struggled with booze and loutish behavior. At each step, with the aid of their fathers' powerful friends, both failed upward. And both shed their skins as Episcopalian members of the Washington elite to build political careers as self-styled, ranch-inhabiting Westerners who pray to Jesus in their wives' evangelical churches.

In one vital respect, however, the comparison is deeply unfair to the current president: George W. Bush was a much better pilot.

Shockey   October 2nd, 2008 3:02 pm ET

McCain should stop putting out negative ads from the past and focus on the future if he can. People don't want to see or hear about what you think of Obama tell us what you can do for this country.

Barney   October 2nd, 2008 3:02 pm ET

Ads don't influence me at this point. I guess some people haven't done their own research, so need to be swayed. Rather a lame way to have their opinions shaped, but that's how it is.

I'm voting as soon as possible for Obama/Biden '08 (I believe that's Oct. 16th in NC)

JD in NC   October 2nd, 2008 3:01 pm ET

Interestingly, McCain is most competitive in the states Obama doesn't campaign in.

I'd like to see how much of McCain's 43% comes from states like Utah, which favor him 66%.

Joe-Six Pack?   October 2nd, 2008 3:01 pm ET

Question: Are we supposed to belt down the whole 6 pack before tonight's debate in order to make sense of Sarah Palin's responses to the questions? Somebody please let me know.........Otherwise the things she says really "make NO sense" unless you are drunk, stoned or John McCain.

SORRY SARAH, BUT EVOLUTION DOES EXIST AND I HAVE PROOF!   October 2nd, 2008 3:00 pm ET

Knowing the rabid religious right, is in control of the Republican party and believes in the written word, I will attempt to conclude with a biblical metaphor about evolution..

Obama the community organizer, walks into the Garden of Evil and snatches the apples away from Adam and Eve and all their children. This prevents the garden that we love from being driven into the dust from whence it came. Meanwhile the Republicans continue to drill the party deeper and deeper into the mud. Finally the Republican party’s evolution is complete and emerges as the Reptilian party.

It could not happen to a more deserving group of reptiles.

Steve   October 2nd, 2008 3:00 pm ET

Katie Couric for Vice President!

Ron L   October 2nd, 2008 3:00 pm ET

Maybe its just me, but I really don't understand the importance of this.

Sam White   October 2nd, 2008 2:59 pm ET

McCain has lost the state, so why spend the dough?

Obama has won the state, so why spend the dough?

McCain would be SMART to cut back on spending in advance of the election.

Anything left over in his campaign war chest is HIS TO KEEP once it is all over.

Hmmmm...... President of the United States during a period of economic crises? Or a payoff equal to almost as much money as his wife has?

If I were McCain, I'd take the money. He's gonna lose anyway.

Greg, NY   October 2nd, 2008 2:58 pm ET

McCain is pulling out of Michigan.

Susan   October 2nd, 2008 2:58 pm ET

I am from Missouri, and I wish Hillary was VP.
