Politician Ads on Tv!!! Lots of Mud here!

[Pembo]

I'm so TIRED of all the mud-slinging ads on our local ads. I wouldn't vote for any of those candidates. IMHO-if you can't run a campaign based on yourself then you shouldn't be running.

The one that really gets me right now is from our sitting governor's campaign. They allude to his opponent as a QUACK and at the end of the commercial a duck flies away and you hear QUACK! Very mature..........

negative ads run b/c negative ads work, unfortunately.

It's been pretty dirty here in Texas too.

Here's something funny though...
One candidate has had 5 or 6 negative commercials (the opponent only had 1 or 2), then he uses the opponents 1 negative commercial & acts like he wouldn't go that low & they need to stick to the issues (lol, the guy had a bunch of negative commercials), the next day the very same candidate had a new negative commercial about his opponent. LOL, what a tool.
