When was the Obama Superbowl ad? (At what point in the game?)
I have it on TiVo, and watched the game, but must have missed it. Did it show in California?

Thanks.

2. If memory serves
it was shortly after the start of the second half or very near the start of the second half. Budweiser clouds my judgement but I think I offer a ballpark idea of where it was.

4. here in NEngland it was at the very end-
there was a Carville- Frist one earlier- on "jinks- owe me a coke"

And then Obama's was at the end, unless there was more than one?

I saw a ton of commercials on Props. No candidate ads that I recall.
