From Washington Post article
For McCain – American Issues Project which
emerged on the scene in August, airing controversial anti-Obama ads in four battleground states — Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan — that sought to raise questions about his ties to William Ayers, a member of the Vietnam War-era radical group known as the Weathermen. The ad was sponsored entirely — at a cost of more than $2 million — by Harold Simmons, a Dallas-based businessman who also helped fund the Swift boat activities four years ago.
For Obama –
MoveOn.org confirmed that the group will spearhead an ad campaign focused on what has emerged as the central theme of the fall campaign, the question of which candidate is better equipped to bring change to Washington.
