President Obama’s re-election team is set to launch a record $25 million ad blitz in a number of swings states in the coming days, weeks and months. Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Nevada, New Hampshire, Iowa, North Carolina, Florida and Colorado will be the first targets – each of them states that Obama won in 2008, but several are traditionally Republican-leaning states. President Bush carried all of them except for Pennsylvania and New Hampshire. That’s actually good news for the Obama campaign since they are playing on Republican turf rather than in places like Michigan and Wisconsin.
