Obama deciding to use money from private Americans to buy television time before the world series in order to try to convince Americans to vote for him.

In the beginning of the final stage for the presidential election Obama and McCain agreed to only spend the public campaign money. However Barack Obama backed out of this agreement, causing him to have more money than McCain.

Personally I believe that this is a sign of arrogance on Obamas part,
it shows McCain will stick to his word no matter what, and Obama will say anything to just get elected.

Your opinions?

Arrogance? He's using money that people willingly donated to his campaign for that very purpose.

Exactly! People willingly donated their money to Obama, knowing that he would use it for advertising purposes in one way or another. Honestly, I think McCain is just jealous that he couldn't possible match Obama's funding. So of course they are going to attack him on it. Lets face it, if McCain had the money, he would probably be doing a counter 30 minute tv ad.

The funny thing is, all the people I talked to said Obama lost their vote because of his 30 minute "infomercial"

Did they have his vote in the first place? Because all the people I know that are going to/have voted for Obama said that it backed up their belief in him.
