A primetime 30-second spot goes to $750,000 for a regular advertiser, but it is not known how much McCain would spend per spot.

McCain and Obama's commercial campaigns will both run until early September.

These campaigns mark the buy of the first national TV spots by presidential candidates since 1996, when Dole bought only one national TV commercial.
