Political Ads and Commercials

It seems to me that it would tone down some of the rhetoric and last minute desperation (like the Elizabeth Dole thing) and give people time to breathe and reflect before making their decision.

That's how it is in Australia, and exactly for that reason.

The GOP has released some new commercials during the past 24 hours including another Reverend Wright "God Damn America" ad which they are playing over and over and over and over and over again.
I'm so sick of this bullshit.
Are these commercials being played in other states too, or are only the folks in Indiana being made to suffer it?

They are about to drive me crazy out of my mind. They are playing on every single channel! It's been like this for weeks, but they've doubled or tripled within the past few days. I'm sick of that Reverend Wright ad. >:(
I guess this is the "grand finale" huh? Hopefully it will all be over with tomorrow and we can begin working to get our sanity back again. :P
