Advertisements

If you dont like the ads, dont watch them.

I have not watched one political ad since the campaigning started over a year ago. Not one.

I either leave the room or use my dvr to fast forward through them.

My assumption is that you are mad that McCain does not have the scratch to over advertise since he is running a horrific campaign.

I am sick of both of them. They are wasting a ton of money and they will be spending a combined $30 million per week over the next 3 weeks

Besides over-spending, his ads are overkill. The same lies over and over and over again.
But look how many McCainites are having their evening ruined. Going to bed with visions of Bot dancing in their heads. Just think how furious McCain must be trying to watch the Arizona Cardinals play and having commercial breaks slamming him? Ya gotta admit it makes for great theater.

I never watch any ads of any kind. I skip by them in magazines, listen to NPR, surf when they appear on television, and never read billboards. The only time I look at ads is in the paper for sales. So, regardless of Obama or McCain, never have seen them.

Every one knows that too much of anything will ruin your reputation...it happened to many celebs and this will happen to Obama as well.
Every where you turn you see his image and I get sick of it....way toooooo much. Even that sentence "I'm barrack obama and i approved" is too much.

Default Tired of ALL political ads

Not a fan, but I agree, in part, that ALL political ads (all media formats), regardless of party, should end at least three weeks before election day.
