Clinton Stops Airing Ads In Primary States

Meanwhile, Politico reports Bernie Sanders is scaling back his ad spending in Indiana.

that they're cutting back on ad buys only because Hillary isn't advertising at all. I think this IS wise, but here's the thing: if Bernie wants to win, he has to keep up the pressure. He chooses not to which is very telling. I realize he's cutting back and not completely cutting out advertising, but if he has all this money, why not go for broke if he wants to win?

Unless...he's running out of money. Poor, poor Tad!
