The Obama campaign released a new ad this morning that it will run during the Olympics on the NBC Universal channels broadcasting the Games.

"Hands" (subscription) encourages Americans to build a green economy and presents Obama as a leader with the vision to take the country in a different direction. "The hands that built this nation can build a new economy," the announcer proclaims.

Both Obama and John McCain are spending several million dollars to run TV ads during the next two weeks of Olympics coverage.
