Florida ad war: Obama 7,387, McCain 0

Democrat Barack Obama ran more ads in Florida in June and July than in any other state, according to Nielsen-Monitor Plus ratings released today.

He's run 7,387 spots in Florida, followed by other traditional battleground states such as Ohio, Michigan Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Republican John McCain is advertising in those state too, but Florida voters can only see his ads on cable. Yet he's still got a narrow lead in the polls.

Perhaps today's campaign stops by Hillary Clinton on Obama's behalf will help him close the deal with a few more Democrats. She's at Florida Atlantic University this morning and at the Kings Point retirement community in Tamarac this afternoon.
