Half a billion dollars has gotten both campaigns basically nowhere

Mitt Romney, Barack Obama campains spend combined half billion on TV adsThe National Journal reports both presidential campaigns, along with their outside supporters, have spent a grand total of $457 million on TV ads. And we haven’t even reached the conventions.

All that money has resulted in pretty much nothing. Every national poll has the race at a tie. The only little something something President Obama can claim is a fairly small lead in swing states Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, according to a poll released earlier this week.

Mitt Romney‘s campaign has spent $51 million to date. Obama’s, $215 million, which includes spending from the DNC.

Sounds like money well spent.
