Rove's PAC matching Obama ad spending in key states, so Mitt can 'husband resources'

(Unlike 2008, Obama will not have the financial advantage this time, thanks to Karl Rove's pac):

Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS is up with a blistering new ad in 10 states: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

Politico reports it's an $8 million buy beginning Thursday -- "part of a larger, $25 million effort that will go up over a month. That basically means Crossroads is matching the Obama campaign's announced plans for $25 million in TV time over a similar period - providing Mitt Romney with needed air cover as he tries to husband resources."

is incoherent. I would imagine most mute like I do. If they're spending money on crap like this, well..good..Both unwatchable and unlistenable.
