In every election season you expect to see and hear some trash talking between the candidates. But this season in Arizona the candidates decided to run a clean elections campaign so the attack adds did not come out until late in the game and when they did they were hardly noticeable. The only one that I could remember that even caught us off guard was the rumor that Terry was homosexual. But I don’t believe we even responded to the rumor, since Terry was married and has a son.
But if you were to say go to California you would be bombarded by attack adds. You would hear every dirty secret that every candidate wrong whether it be true or not and most of it was probably blown completely out of proportion but that is what attack adds are all about. Distraction, distraction, distraction. They are designed to get your focus off the issues and on the flaws of the other candidate. Most people don’t participate in the mid-term elections but those who do don’t pay attention to the candidates issues so when they see these adds they get side tracked and just focus on which candidates adds are the most attractive or maybe worse they vote party line.
