Barack Obama's Mega Ad

Much has been made of Barack Obama's incredible fundraising, and rightfully so. Like no other politician in history, Obama understood the power of the Internet and used it to his advantage masterfully. Because of this, Obama finds himself in a unique position over the last few days of the campaign. With a considerably higher bankroll than opponent John McCain, Barack Obama can literally spend more in one month than John McCain can over his entire campaign.

But how do you even go about spending that much money? Well, the Obama campaign figured out a way.

Last night, in an unprecedented show of campaign muscle, Barack Obama made his case directly to the American people in a 30-minute infomercial. Spanning seven television channels, including networks CBS, Fox, and ABC, the piece allowed the Obama campaign to paint a very compelling picture of the hardships America is facing and the way that a President Obama could fix them.

Seen by an estimated 35 million people, the spot seems to have been a big hit across the country. If you didn't get a chance to see the ads, check them out below and leave a comment. I'd love to hear what ad students and professionals thought of the spot.
