Obama continues to outspend Romney in Nevada, but GOP won ad war this week

The Obama campaign spent half a million dollars in Nevada this week, easily outdistancing the Romney campaign, reflecting a general trend for the campaign as Democrats have crushed Republicans here despite significant help from American Crossroads. But this last week, with help from Americans for Prosperity and Restore Our Future, the Romney SuperPAC, the Republicans won the dollars-on-TV war.

The shape of things to come?

An estimated $9 million has been spent here in the presidential race already, the National Journal's inestimable Reid Wilson reports. I guess...we matter.
