For the GOP, the cavalry apparently isn't coming.
Republicans attuned to conservative third-party efforts say that with less than two weeks to go until Election Day, the prospects for any 11th-hour, anti-Obama ad campaign are highly unlikely.
Many in the party, including inside the McCain campaign, have held out hope that a deep-pocketed benefactor would emerge to bankroll ads in the campaign's final days - spots that might, for example, resurrect the most incendiary clips from the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
