Romney: 30 ads a day, every day, on WMUR

November has been a good month for Mitt Romney in New Hampshire, as the latest polls indicate.  After falling as low as 23 percent in late September, Romney has polled over 30 percent in the last five public Granite State polls.

It's worth pointing out how much the Romney campaign is spending here in order to maintain and expand that lead.   

During October, Romney regularly spent more than $100,000 a week on ad buys at WMUR-TV, New Hampshire's only statewide commercial television station. 

This month, Romney upped the ante yet again.  His campaign is now spending more than $200,00o a week on WMUR:

October 31 - November 6: $219,865 for 191 ads

November 7-13: $228,500 / 220 ads

November 14-20: $227,475 / 204 ads

That's Romney round-the-clock, at the rate of more than one ad an hour, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. 

There's one on right now, as a matter of fact.
