Classic response. If you don't have any facts to counter an argument, just call what's being said lies or smoke and mirrors. That'll help everyone make good decisions next time they have to go into a voting booth.

If anyone says simply that they will vote for one party or another and don't let their thought process go any further than that, we'll deserve what we get for a government. We'll get more of what we've seen for the last decade or two because that's exactly the way the politicians craft their statements, political ads and soundbites. Crafted to appeal to people who they know won't choose to think.
