Still haven't decided how I'm going to vote... but here's a Glee-inspired Quinn ad.

I wonder if Brady's Lt. Governor running mate has a stutter. If that's the case, I might vote Brady just because of the assholishness of Quinn be an adult and pick on a guy with a stutter.

Ok, not an ad, but in the spirit of election season, enjoy.

I wish I was still registered to vote in New York.

Rick Scott in Florida has ads with his mother and wife talking about how great he is.. they give me the heebie jeebies.

An opponent has an ad about how Scott plead the fifth 75 times

as much as I hate ads that just bash other people, that one makes me laugh a little every time.

Yeah, well Alex Sink, speaking of secret Asian men, is the great granddaughter of a famous Siamese twin from North Carolina, someone named Bunker Chang.

I voted against Alex, by the way. Lesser of two evils. Alex helped run State Farm out of Florida. We're so hard up for homeowners insurance companies in this state. Thanks, Alex!

Was Angle a republican primary upset like Christine O'donnell?

I had to double check because I thought so. Looks like Sue Lowden was the expected winner, and Angle was Tea Party Express endorsed. (And Angle was polling 3rd, at the time.)

However there is a Tea Party candidate that Angle asked not to run so she could beat Reid; he is still in the race though AFAIK.

So, yes, she's a Tea Party upset.

Texas Contradiction Ads

Rick Perry (Rep., current governor) says he has created over 800,000 jobs in Texas:

but, Bill Flores, running as a Republican to unseat a Democrat says that there is more unemployment than ever in Texas and its Obama's and the current Dems fault:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Jce4...eature=related

So, which is it Republicans? More jobs in Texas or more unemployment in Texas than ever?

Another interesting ad for Rick Perry. I can't find the link, but the widow of a Houston police officer killed by an illegal immigrant, talks about how Perry's opponent, the former mayor of Houston, supported "Sanctuary Cities". (Here's a link, because I don't quite understand all the legallese. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanctuary_city She finishes the ad by saying that Rick Perry will "protect our borders". Ma'am, Rick Perry was the governor when your husband died in the line of duty. If he didn't protect the border then, how's he going to do it in the future?

I've heard that ad on the radio. Perry and White have completely different positions when it comes to border security. Perry wants the deployment of the National Guard, border fence, more border patrol, etc while White wants more local Sheriffs deputies on patrol in the border counties. I don't know if White really is an advocate for sanctuary cities, but at the same time I don't know why Perry hasn't proposed anything banning sanctuary cities in TX in the last ten years either.

You are on my shit list, Pat Toomey. You called me (or rather your automated crap called me) at 8 o'freaking clock in the morning. This is unacceptable. I don't care what you stand for, your dumb ass just lost my vote.

One of the races around here has a candidate doing an ad with a James Bond theme (calling his opponent Dr. No). It's just getting silly at this point.

Admit it, it's really because you saw the ad that said "Pat Toomey created thousands of jobs... in CHINA! <insert gong sound here>"

This is the biggest thing that bugs me about any politician, Democrat or Republican. They run for re-election saying "I'm going to...", "I want to...", and I always want to meet them and say "Why haven't you...?" Perry's been governor already for 6,7? years, c'mon Governor Goodhair (RIP Molly Ivins), why haven't you?

Rick is going to be re-elected.

That's the only fact I know.
