Wonder how the trade issue is playing out in the 2008 elections?  We know that the idea of "free trade" is unpopular among Democrats, Republicans and Independents.  Some candidates are using paid media to bring their message on trade to voters.  Our friends at the Citizens Trade Campaign have done a terrific job of compiling some of these ads.  You can see their efforts to track ads here.  AAM received its own recognition in the Washington Post for its China Cheats ads during the primaries.  Stay tuned for our October advertising plans on trade and jobs later this week.
