Negativity

By Annita Achilleos

How far will this negative ad campaign go? (both of them actually). Can it get worse? Is this really the way to go in order to win an election? Both Republicans and Democrats have spent millions of dollars on ads that simply say how bad their opponent is and some times deliberately misinterpret what they say. Sex education at kindergarten? I mean…come on…the republicans think that the American people are 10 years old? This kind of misinterpretations just underestimates the intelligence of the American people. By using a phrase that has the word pig and lipstick Barack Obama was NOT talking about Palin. I still cannot accept the fact that there are people out there that even made this connection. The American people should not be portrayed as brainless and idiotic!
