    It seems like voting for people these days is picking the lesser of two evils. When it comes to voting for things it always seems like there is no good choice; all the propositions have sneaky misleading loopholes built into them these days.

    Every other commercial in WI is a mudslinging political campaign. Sure is fun to watch.

    Well, I personally try and keep a sense of humor through all the political poking at one another. Its almost as good as a sit com.

    It's bad here in the Chicago suburbs, too. Honestly, it's the worst I've seen it and we don't watch TV. They mail us every day about the nasty things their opponents have done/will do. They come to the door to tell us. The Republican National Committee calls us every day to remind us a Democratic candidate supports illegal immigration.

    Recently we got a flyer with a candidate shown as a puppet on strings being controlled by...I don't remember what. It's all lies anyway.

    Only a few flyers have mentioned what they do support and would do for our district.

    We are up to our eyeballs in the mud slinging too. KS is electing a Govenor this year. Since I live right near the KS and MO boarder, our local tv stations carry both states ads. I get a double dose of mud!!!

    If someone ever just tells me what they stand for and what they will do, without mud slinging, I'd vote for them so fast the opponents heads would spin!!!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    I so rarely watch network TV that I have not seen a single ad on TV. I've heard them on the radio, but, only for Mark Souder and Tom Hayhurst for the 3rd District Congressional race. I NEVER listen to the ads when making a decision. I look at what they've done and read news etc. Those ads are spinning so hard that it's dizzying...
