It seems that whenever I create a new campaign, all of my keywords, even 9 word long-tail ones are fetching at least something like a .20 cent bid or else inactive for search. Why is it so high for even absurd misspelled words? has someone beaten me to all these same keywords or what?

So, if you're bidding on the keyword "5 year old one eyed three legged german shepard named lucky" than you need to have that text on your landing page and in your ad.
That's how you deal with QS.
That's how you deal with QS.
So then how would you do arbi on long tail keywords if they point to a page thats optimized for a main, higher paying keyword? (ie the page drops the term 'widgets' a million times but doesnt drop 'reasons why blue widget is better than red widget')
in my experience you can very often have a page all about cats, H1 and metatags about cats title of the page about cats but if this page is in a subdomain called DOGS then the ads will be about dogs.
I have also found that you can have 100 general keywords that kind of relate to the page and those will be cheap, but the three keywords that really describe your page will be expensive. Kind of because Google know that those are the ones you really need and will pay for.
So you swear at google and pay what they ask you then after a while the QS kicks in and those 3 keywords that describe your page have a chance to prove themselves and when they do (google in the meantime gets some initial good money) then their price starts to go down.
The other crap I usually don't care much so either I pay what I want to pay or I delete.
And somehow Google senses that and the price only goes up after many impressions with no clicks, at which point I delete them and am left with what really fits the page.
