McCain Stretches Ad Dollars in Colorado And Maine, Too

First, we learned from Democratic ad buyers that the McCain campaign was not spending any new money on advertising in New Hampshire and Wisconsin -- tantamount to concessions of those states.  Now, from those same sources, we learn that the McCain campaign is reconfiguring their advertising buys in Colorado and Maine as well.

What this means is that the campaign is scaling back on the volume of their current buys and will stretch those savings for another week.

What this means is that the campaign is making tough decisions about where to spend.

What this means that is that if they thought that they could move the numbers in Colorado, they would spend there.

What this pretense of a strategy means, in essence, is that the campaign has no real electoral strategy -- they are simply trying to cover as much ground as possible in the hope that one of these states breaks for McCain.
