If you're from a swing state please report your general geographic location and if you're seeing an increase in Romney ads. Are these ads effective?

Prime time TV in Colorado ad 2 minutes ago. Small businessman: Obama treats you like he is your enemy.

Do people watch TV any more? Don’t they FF through commercials on the DVR?

Any Ads before Oct 10th are a waste of money. Americans have short memories when it comes to politics.

Not in a swing state, I live in California.
What I find really interesting, obama is running TV ads here.
Nothing from Romney.

I am seeing them in FL. But for every 2 Romney ads, there are 3 Obama ads.

Romney SHOULD be talking about the "Kardashian President"..

Famous for being famous.. merely a face and a sound bite..
Absolutely ZERO content..

I’m in the greater Boston area & Romney is hitting the NH market from here. He’s close to even with Obama, IMO, in TV ads. I drive a lot & Romney has almost 100% coverage on the radio in NH.

I don’t know what Romney is doing ,but here in maryland we are being pummeled by negative Obama ads against Romney.

Every ad has Romney in it, Giving jobs to China, screwing the kids educations, messing up health care.

I never knew what a monster Romney was until Obama started these negative ads 24/7

Now that I know— I am sure to vote for Romney—I would vote for beelzebob before voting for the Muslim A-hole we have now.

I’m not in a swing state but I never, ever watch ads thanks to the DVR. I don’t take calls from pollsters either.

We’re in Iowa. We seldom turn our TV on.

The phone has been ringing off the hook for over a month now. We don’t even answer it anymore. Our family and friends have our cell phone numbers so we know it’s just polls and telemarketers.

One encouraging thing. We have a 20 year old son at home (part time student). He has been getting bombarded with very good Romney mailers. He has been receiving stuff in the mail almost daily for the last 2-3 weeks.

Someone in the campaign has wisely decided to go after the young vote.

Both sides are in fairly heavy rotation in the Jacksonville, FL market.

If you're watching your favorite TV show and you don't see a single Romney ad.... don't despair! You're not being targeted.

However, if your wife and daughter insist on watching "Cup Cake Wars" on the Food Network in SW VA, you may get to see plenty Romney ads.

This is the new, hard-hitting ad Romney is playing in swing states.

"I'm Mitt Romney and I approved this message."

"You know, Barack Obama is a pretty nice guy. Good dad, good husband, looks great in a suit. But I have to say that maybe he's not the best person to be president. I know, I know. You're saying, 'Why is Romney being so tough on Obama.' Well, I have to say that I'd probably be a better president, so there it is. Not to say anything negative about President Obama. Just that, maybe, I might do a better job."

Whew! That'll hit Obama where it hurts!

I’m in Virginia (the central part of the state). At the moment I’m not seeing any ads at all.

I thought there was supposed to be a carpet-bombing right after the DNC convention, but it never appeared. Don’t know what to think.

Nothing up here either. Before the conventions just about every other ad on TV was a Romney ad. Now they’re seen sparingly if at all.

Obama’s been hitting the television hard with ads against Romney.

There’s also one ad in particular that Obama’s running claiming that more than 4 million jobs have been created and claiming that the economy’s much better now than it was under Bush. From what I’ve been hearing this Obama ad is getting him a positive response.

I have yet to see a response from the Romney team about this ad.

Has anybody else seen it?
