Yes, but apparantly a lot of people buy it.

I agree.  It has gotten to the point that I find myself thinking of voting against the candidates and ballot measures who have the most annoying ad campaigns.\n\nOverall, I end up with a negative opinion of pretty much everything and everyone on the ballot - so I find it hard to believe the TV ads are effective.\n\nThe mailers don't even make it into the house, I loop by the paper recycling bin in the garage on my way in from the mailbox.\n\nThese last few days have been REALLY bad though.  I am getting 5 or 6 phone calls per hour - ALL recordings asking me to vote for or against something.  \nWe need a DO NOT CALL FOR ANY REASON list.  I hate that political groups are exempt from that do not call list.

There are a lot of closed-minded people in the world. They want people to hear their opinion, but don't have time for others. It really is a shame, because its not just "everyday people" who act like this, but politicians - all across the spectrum - that do as well.

That was funny. It is weird how when you bring up shoe shopping Republicans think you are sick. Yet when Coulter said that the widows are glad their husbands died they were ok with that. Weird how their clock is wound.

Because either people are apathetic, or, they are hypnotized by these  crooked politicians.  Very few of us are immune  to it. I am one. I do not vote for those who want to rule for  a 2nd or 3rd term or beyond. They have gotten rich enough, and don't need any more of my money.

I know exactly how you feel!!!  I think a lot of my girlfriends just humor me when I get on my political soap box.  I called my friend today and she knew nothing about the election, yet she knew everything about the Britney/K-fed break--she even knew the details of the pre-nupt!!!!  \n\nMost of my political debating is with males, but I like it, I can hold my own just fine.  Although, I do have a few girlfriends who follow and care about the political process.  I am very grateful for 'em!\nGood question, I thought I was the only one too!!! :o)

As frustrating as our Canadian government can be, I can't say that I have heard of anything as absurd as U.S. politics. Actors are always trying their hand at politics. I don't get it! Weird...

Hey that is a anti low IQ slur. \n\nThere are quite a few hard working men and women that can be easily swayed by a celebrity politicians visit.\n\nGo big Red Go

Are you surprised by that?\nThey just can't accept that not everyone thinks like they do.\nBrainwashing works on them, so why not on everyone else?\n\nOsama is having a BIG PARTY today!

It was definitly not me.  I thought I was going to puke when he got elected!\nBut I have to say, when he was first elected I had to cringe at what a sore loser his opponent was.\nWhen is Hilary going to get over it and run anyways??

Absolutely. Ignorant, arrogant, obnoxious, pathetic. Doesn't grasp the concept of perspectives and opinions. Unless it's just an act. It's TV. Unless you know the guy, personally, it's kind of impossible to know if he's really like that.\n\nI find it amusing that the people who've said no sound just like him.

You may be right. Nowadays, people are basing humor, well satire  around politics and its kinda getting on my nerves as well.\n\nI watch 'Whose line is it",  kinda nice.\n\nTo get my spirits high, I usually watch FRIENDS, Less Than Perfect, etc

WOW! That is interesting. Nice to know we have such "well behaved" people helping to run our country!!! That is why I hate politics!

does all that spinning make you dizzy? fact...the repubs didn't knock off a SINGLE incumbent democratic senator, congressman, OR governor...just admit to the 'thumping' y'all got and go back to bed...

You are not alone.  It's annoying.  I am a Democrat and I don't have anything against any person of any party affiliation.  Stereotypes are just human nature (90% ignorance).

Oh heck no, that is when you find out the most about each politician.  It is quite entertaining as well.  Kinda like watching Superbowl commercials.

Yeah... they go on talking about how they have "experience" during an election... I'm not sure I want someone in there with "experience".... "experience" seems to be code for corrupt in Washington
