Some of the so-called "negative advertising" today is cream-puff stuff compared to the fights and mudslinging from the 18th century. If anything, we've become nicer.
I don't place my trust in politics. I'm not like those conservatives such as Rush Limbaugh who do. He's a clever man who hits the nail on the head; but even I get tired of hearing the same thing over and over.

Yes, I'm angered by government status at this time, but sadly we've let freedom to have what we want overtake the responsibility to handle what freedoms we have. It isn't getting better with being divided as Republican/Democrat, Conservative/Liberal, and Red state/Blue state..its time we be the "United" States of America again, instead of the "Divided Nation of Reds and Blues", as we've so hastily chosen to become.
