Let's Hope The Republicans Follow Through and Repeal It! Anti-Obamacare Ads Dominate GOP Ad Buys in October

Anti-Obamacare Ads Dominate GOP Ad Buys in October | The Weekly Standard

OCT 28, 2014 • BY JEFFREY H. ANDERSON



Without offering an alternate theory for President Obama’s 42 percent approval rating — which was about the same even before it became obvious his foreign policy had tanked — the mainstream media is insisting that Obamacare isn’t driving this election.  But Republican ads in Senate races say otherwise.  
According to Kantar Media’s Campaign Media Analysis Group (CMAG), Republicans ran nearly 12,000 anti-Obamacare ads in Senate races during the week of October 13-19. That’s almost twice as many ads as they ran on jobs/unemployment, more than twice as many as they ran on international affairs, and more than three times as many as they ran on taxes. In fact, it’s more than they ran on jobs/unemployment, taxes, and social issues combined.  It’s also more than they ran on jobs/unemployment and immigration combined. 
The top-5 issues for the GOP in Senate races for the week of October 13-19 were as follows: 
1. Obamacare (nearly 12,000 ads)
2. Budget/Government Spending (nearly 9,000 ads)
3. Energy/Environment (nearly 7,000 ads)
4. Jobs/Unemployment (more than 6,000 ads)
5. Immigration (nearly 5,000 ads)
