1. Factoring in January

The end of year cash on hand plus January receipts would put Obama and Clinton on almost the same level. I would have to imagine that Obama's larger Super Tuesday ad buy would put his cash on hand now lower than Clinton's, although he may be catching up now with his 7+ million raised since Tuesday.

2. How much did Hillary spend on that Hallmark buy?

That had to take a large chunk - plus factor in that her cash on hand was thanks in part to her own influx of cash she loaned to the campaign.

4. $500,000 - Obama spent $250,000 on theSuperBowl buy.

6. As someone in marketing & pr, that superbowl buy was an awesome investment

It was the second highest rated show - ever. Only behind the final episode of M.A.S.H. It reached a core demographic that generally doesn't participate in elections and is turning out in droves to support Obama. It was also a smart buy because many females watch the Superbowl JUST for the commercials alone (I know, some of you like to watch football too, but there's an interesting number of people that watch those commercials).

The Hallmark buy probably helped, but I'm not sure it pulled in anyone that wasn't already leaning her direction anyway. I would like to see the numbers on viewers and try to break it down to "first time viewers" to some degree. It was more like an infomercial for supporters rather than an attempt to reach voters. I could be wrong, but that's the general feeling I get from the numbers and demos.

7. Wow did you notice the cash on hand amounts?

You can add all the Republicans together and they don't ad up to either Hillary or Barry. Ron paul has more than the other 3 combined, interesting.

8. Is this primary money or GE, or both?

It looks like it's both, which is a little deceptive. For example, Hillary may have 20 million on hand, but might not be allowed to spend it on the primaries.
