Obama TV ads return to GA airwaves

Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama is returning ads to the Georgia airwaves. Shortly after the nomination of Republican Sarah Palin for Vice President, polls showed Obama twenty points behind John McCain. It was then Obama pulled out staffers and stopped ads in Georgia. However, recent polling has showed a tightening race between Obama and Republican Presidential nominee McCain. It’s unclear how big the latest ad buy is. Obama will also be airing ads in North Dakota and McCain’s home state of Arizona. Polls show Obama closing the gap in both of those historically Republican states.
