According to The Washington Post, President Obama has spent more than $91 million on television ads in eight swing states as of July 6. Over the same time Mitt Romney has spent just $23 million. True, conservative groups have spent some money against Obama closing the gap a little (in Pennsylvania, for example, Obama has spent $5 million, Romney nothing, and Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS has spent $2.3 million).

But conservative groups have far outraised and outspent liberal groups this year and that trend shows no signs of abating (American Crossroads, the 527 organization affiliated with Crossroads GPS, has already booked $40 million in advertising time for the last four weeks of the election.
