There was word on here today that McCain was pulling out of Northern VA because he could no longer afford the D.C. ad rates.

Well here in Central Virginia it has been NON STOP ads from both candidates every day all day for the past couple of months.

EXCEPT...for today. Obama is still all over the place. But, I HAVE NOT SEEN ONE MCCAIN AD.

This is a 100% difference since JUST YESTERDAY.

Could be coincidence or whatver, but it's a huge and sudden change.

3. I think the McCain campaign is cutting back everywhere.
They are facing a serious money crunch.

4. But it's more than cutting back.
I must have seen at least 15 McCain ads on last night.

I've had the TV on since 6:30, now 7:15 and I've already seen 5 Obama ads.

And not a single one for McCain.

It's a startling change and might mean that they are giving up in VA after today's Obama took a double digit lead in polls today.
