It would be interesting to know how much difference paid campaign staffers and campaign offices make. I don`t know the effect 100 extra campaign staffers will make in a state like Ohio with over 10 million people. I completely agree it is a win-win proposal for Obama to compete in Montana etc and those states are not expensive. The national Olympic ad buy also makes sense since a lot of states are considered battleground from coast to coast. It also has the beneficial effect of shoring up support in potential weak spots like New Jersey. Good article.
