  Five-and-a-Half Hours

  Posted Monday, April 21, 2008 5:14 PM | By Christopher Beam

  How’s this for rapid response:

  11: 15 a.m.: Clinton campaign e-mails: “NEW AD: Clinton Campaign Unveils New Ad Asking Voters, ‘Who Do You Think Has What it Takes?’ ” [Watch it here.]

  4:49 p.m.: Obama campaign e-mails: “AD RESPONSE TO CLINTON FEAR AD” [Watch it here.]

  Five-and-a-half hours: All it takes to digest, produce, edit, and hit back with a counter-spot. So this is that 21st Century campaign I've been hearing all about. Obama spokesman Bill Burton says the ad will be airing in Pennsylvania.
