Thread Name: BS: Elections are over
Subject: RE: BS: Elections are over
I'm with you, Bob 53. I'm sooooo tired of the current trend of "don't vote for So-and-so, he's wrong for (your state's name here)" commercials where So-and-so's picture appears in grainy black-and-white in the most unflattering pose possible (mouth open, eyes crossed, etc.) while the candidate whose "friends" paid for the advertisement gets a color picture with a beatific smile. Why don't they just put horns on their opponents and halos on themselves and be done with it?! And all those "he voted against this bill" and "she accepted money from that organization" details run together until it's impossible to remember who did what!!

So goodbye for another year, negative campaign ads, and good riddance to bad rubbish. Now we can be inundated by the Christmas holiday commercials!
