More than any previous election, search advertising will influence the vote of the presidential election. Google, in its ever-present planning for the future, planned for this shift when it employed Peter Greenberger as part of its sales team. Greenberger’s job is to convince candidates that advertising on Google search is essential to political success. Recently, ClickZ’s Kate Kaye interviewed Greenberger for his insights into the 2008 election.

Reading Greenberger’s statements, you get the idea that spending on search ads will make or break the election. He attributes the success of John McCain and Barack Obama to their paid search campaigns. Greenberger also points out that Hillary Clinton was inconsistent in her Adwords campaign, dismantling it for the last two quarters of 2007 and starting it up again only after the New Hampshire primary.

Of course, polls during those times showed Clinton with a substantial lead. It wasn’t until after the Iowa and New Hampshire primaries that a tight race was clear. Some political analysts have suggested that the ultimate difference between Clinton and Obama was that Clinton’s campaign was focused on a top-down strategy while Obama’s strategy was more grassroots, building from the ground up. Looking at campaign strategies in that light, it makes sense that Obama would engage a response-directed campaign. But Greenberger’s job is to persuade the candidates that Adwords is the chicken and not the egg.

Greenberger also talked about how Obama used geotargeting during the Texas primary and how John McCain is ahead of the game in the use of video ads. Read the full interview with Google’s political ad guy, Peter Greenberger, over at ClickZ

Almost two years ago, an award-winning Google paper outlined a way to link a computer with a television to collect real-time data about viewer actions. The implications of the technology Google was working on could spell trouble for Nielsen Media Research, the incumbent, go-to agency providing the data upon which TV ad prices have been based for half a century.

Google continues to march down that Nielsen-busting road: This week Google announced that advertisers now have the ability to track the online impact of Google TV Ads with Google Analytics.

With this new feature advertisers using Google TV Ads can measure impressions delivered, the number of ad plays, the cost, and CPM. Nielsen, of course, has made its own roads into the online measurement roads and has been proactive about creating new, more dynamic ways to measure audiences beyond demographics and audience size.

But one thing, especially as Yahoo also becomes more aggressive with television network partnerships, the audience measurement game is officially a one-horse show no more.
