"There are other third-party But Rove's analysis ignores the simple fact that it was actually Sen. John McCain who went on the air first."
Who cares? McCain launched his "air war" TV ads on June 7th
And Obama launched his air war on June 20th, who cares.
I'm amazed at what this article "didn't" claim was a "faulty analysis"
Specifically
Mr. Obama's ads show he's aware of his vulnerability on two fronts: his liberal values and his meager achievements.
His bio ad says he was raised with "values straight from the Kansas heartland," though he grew up in Hawaii.
He claims to have passed three bills, but fails to mention that two were in the Illinois state Senate and that he didn't vote on the third in the U.S. Senate.

  Cash matters, but being a good candidate and right on the issues matters even more.
