Lanny Davis a former White House Counsel under President Bill Clinton recently appeared on FOX News. He came out and chastised soundly the latest Obama Super Pac ad about a women”s tragic death from cancer implied Romney and Bain Capital were responsible. Mr. Davis stated the woman had worked for another company not associated with Bain and had insurance with her employer though she did lose that insurance. She died six years after Romney had left Bain and neither Romney nor Bain were responsible for her death. I am also sick and tired of attacks mainly by the Democratic machine showing a Paul Ryan look alike shoving Grandma over the cliff. I recall LBJ had the ad about the little girl picking flowers and an atomic bomb going off. An implication that Barry Goldwater would unleash an atom bomb if elected. Gutter politics at it”s worst. Yes, I know all political ads take things out of context but I have yet to see any Republican ad resorting to this low. Many years ago my husband was a big Democratic party member and union rep, but he stated after LBJ, he felt he didn”t leave the Democratic Party, they left him.
Democratic pollsters Doug Schoen and Pat Caddell stated recently that opinion polls are skewed to show more support for Obama than is really out there by asking more Democratic registrants than Republican to voice their vote. Reference Google both these names and they will confirm this information. Most people like to feel they always bet the winner so it is a feel good for them when they see who they are led to believe is ahead. Voters, please try to think outside the box. Listen not only to the ads but what the candidates say in their own words and even then check the facts. Yes its work but our country needs an informed citizenry.
