Be glad you don't live in Ohio.

[LiberalFighter]

Tweety just informed the viewers that it would take 80 days to view all of the political ads shown in the past month.

[BraKez2]

1. check out my thread from earlier

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251180388

45 straight campaign commercials....

[HockeyMom]

2. Ditto Florida

All local commericals are just about GONE.

[FarPoint]

3. He is absolutely correct.

I am drowning in political ads............. Dayton, Ohio.

[Tribetime]

4. TONE DEAF , MITTS WASTING HIS MONEY, PEOPLE TUNE OUT

[blazeKing]

5. Virginia ain't any better

The ads can't possibly be having an affect anymore.

*EDIT: Besides the "Stage" Ad...that one is brutal.

[LukeFL]

16. Stage ad? Which one is that?

[blazeKing]

22. It may have won us Ohio

Supposedly the most effective ad this election according to focus groups

[LukeFL]

24. WOW!!!!!!

What a powerful ad. It actually made me tear.

The Obama campaign should bring that AD here to FL now!

Poor guy. And to think it's not false. Romney did that. It's really depressing to see Anericans shooting Romney.

[Lugnut]

23. That ad ran in PA a lot about two months ago.

It was devastating and might have made a huge difference to PA voters.

6. I use to live in Dayton. Born and raised there.

Politically it was ok in the 50's and 60's when I was growing up. Ok for white males. Most worked in factories and voted Dem.
Then the Civil Rights movement, the woman's movement and the anti war movement challenged the hold white males had on things. Then the factories shut down in the 80's and poor whites from the South migrated north because they lost their land to rising property taxes.
The people from the south brought their fundementalism and right leaning views.
They took over the politics and the original white males joined them. They voted for Reagan and blamed women, minorities, and gays for their problems.
I left in 1981 to move to Los Angeles.

7. People can only take so much. I just tune it out or turn it off.

[hrmjustin]

8. Those poor people.

[UncleYoder]

9. Don't worry about us.

We can take it. Besides, every dollar they spend here, they don't have it to spend in some other state. Ohio is going blue big time. We are in balls to the wall GOTV mode till the polls close.

[liberal N proud]

10. It's so bad, you have to turn off the TV to escape

I am sure there will be a shock to our system when the ads stop.

[marlakay]

11. I am in WA state and tons of commercials here

Not for pres but gov, congress, pot, gay marriage.

I mute them...I bet most around the country do...what a waste of money, who do they think actually watches them?

[Stryder]

12. Cleveland here.

Yeah, we're saturated.
Seems to be the worst during morning news.
Makes me want to stay in bed and listen to the
alarm clock scream for a couple hours.

[RomneyLies]

13. Oversaturation

The air game can only carry a campaign so far.

If you don't have a good ground game, your air game is meaningless.

Obama's got game.

[dontknowmuchbout]

14. Virginia is just as bad

Virginia also has non-stop political ads. I just saw five in a row in one commercial break! Such an inefficient system! $2 billion from the presidential alone that could go to cancer research or education.

[safeinOhio]

15. I got 9 pieces of mail yesterday

from the ohio repub party. At least I cost them some wasted postage.

[Divine Discontent]

17. OH, got me! I thought you were gonna say that Ohioans have NO chance to win costume contests...

with Josh Mandel's ability to win 'em all portraying Pee Wee Herman!

[jeanV]

18. Who watches TV anymore?

I mean, with so many things over the internet, and cable for movies, I'm surprised TV ads amount to anything.

[Ivywoods55]

19. Boardman, Ohio here!

Nothing but wall to wall ads. I tune them out most of the time, but I laugh at some of the Romney ones. Right now I am looking for a new cable/Internet provider since mine, Armstrong Cable saw fit to donate to that liar Romney's campaign. Seems as if we are getting twice the amount of Liar's ads. The President and Clinton will be here on Monday afternoon. I am going to the rally with my daughter, my nine year old grandson, and about ten co-workers. Feeling great here even with the ad assault.

[LukeFL]

25. Yay! Don't let them get to you.

Good luck on Monday! Bill Clinton and PO!
What a treat.!

[Dr Claw]

20. I have avoided a lot of local TV because of this.

Unfortunately, I can't even watch football without seeing this nonsense.

[nobunnyclue]

21. Only PBS

... nary a political add in sight.

More Democrats living in Ohio would be a good thing, so regret that you don't live here too! We need a big influx of free-choice jayhawks to push back the rising red tide demographic!

[Bluzmann57]

26. Same here in Iowa

Everywhere. And I mean every friggin' channel, likely every minute of the day. And no offense to Ohioans, but I am glad I don't live in Ohio.

[Travis_0004]

27. I live in Ohio, and I agree, there are a lot of ads

The only saving grace is that I live in Cincinnati, which means all television stations broadcast into Ky, and IN, which are both solid red states. So only 50-60% of people watching are in Ohio. The downside is I also see a lot of commercials for Ky politicians.

[TwilightGardener]

28. I'm always glad of that.

[Gargoyle22]

29. Electoral college needs to be abolished*
