I disagree that we all hate the negative ads. I know I do, but I don't think Joe 6-pack hates them and I don't think the Christian right hates them, either.
If a voter doesn't make an effort to understand the issues, or is a single-issue voter, then character is all that matters to that voter. And the negative ads are the best way to convey character to narrow-minded people. When the Republicans start, the Dems feel they have to retaliate--I wish Obama's campaign would ignore the crap the Republicans put out there. It's not making Obama look any better to the undecideds (whom I believe are intelligent) and, from now until Nov. 4th, those are the only voters the Dems need to reach out to.

This last month is going to be the worst ever, a new low.

It's total rubbish indeed! It's all about "finding perceived and possible dirt", kneed and 'pork' it in súch a way that it will hopefully
