Campaign ads

President Obama’s reelection campaign released a new ad for TV on Friday that zeroes in on education policy.

The ad uses Obama's story of educational success to tout his education policy. The 30-second TV spot suggests that Obama’s educational success depended on “hard work and student aid,” and eventually led to his high-profile success in politics.

Crossroads GPS, a conservative-aligned outside group backed by Karl Rove, is on the air in Nebraska with an ad attacking former Sen. Bob Kerrey (D-Neb.) for supporting the bank bailout.

Crossroads will spend $260,000 to air the ad in five Nebraska markets plus Denver, whose media market bleeds into southwestern Nebraska.

The ad campaign comes three days after the Republican primary in Nebraska, and as both parties are scrambling to define state Sen. Deb Fischer (R), a rural rancher who emerged from relative obscurity to pull off an upset victory in the primary on Tuesday.

The spot outlines a series of "day one" goals for a Romney presidency.

A proposal from a GOP-leaning super-PAC to run attack ads against President Obama was floated and rejected within hours.

Albuquerque Mayor and Democratic congressional candidate Marty Chavez took a unique approach to touting his toughness in a new campaign ad released Thursday — stepping into a boxing ring and taking a round of stomach punches.

The campaign says American Future Fund is seeking to "circumvent" disclosure rules with ads hitting Obama on energy and healthcare.

An appeals court has upheld a court ruling that would require disclosure of secret donors behind issue ads.

Voters might believe the economy is improving, but Mitt Romney's presidential campaign is looking to remind them it isn't better yet with a new Web video released Tuesday.

Recent polls indicate that a majority of Americans believe the economy is improving and will be better by this time next year. Romney's new ad, a litany of sad stories set to low-key music, looks to remind voters it isn't better for everyone yet.

Romney’s campaign released a new video Monday, saying his leadership at Bain Capital helped workers achieve the "American Dream."

The liberal group MoveOn.org is up with a new ad slamming Mitt Romney for the positions he took against funding Planned Parenthood and forcing all employers to cover contraception in medical insurance, arguing he "threw women under the bus" to secure the Republican nomination.
