Thank GOD for DVR technology and not having to listen to any of the political slop being dispensed.

I personally think the only purpose the ads serve is to give the party faithful something to talk about. For any with any intelligence and thinking ability what comes from the television set is not what will help people decide to do on election day. The ads are useless except for media revenue generation.

one only has to watch the snippets of material on late night television and cable news stations to see the 'man-on-the-street' interviews re the current political scene or the history of the united states and it is enough to scare the begeesus out of me if any of those who are interviewed go to the polls to vote! seems to be a significant degree of a lack of intelligence and thinking ability in those clips - not to mention a total lack of knowledge - yet they will be allowed to vote!
