Democrats: anything that mentions "Herbert Hoover", not only is it misdirection but I think most people dont care since they think he invented the vacuum cleaner and cant find the state he was born in on a map

Republicans: anything with the word liberal and ted kennedy in it

Democrats: A chicken in every pot and a car in every drive way. Free health care, free prescriptions, millions of jobs, increased taxes on the rich (anyone making more than 200,000), take the country back from the rich and powerful and give it back to the people, restore international respect and re-join the international community.

Just don't expect a kiss or any reach arounds.

Luke T.:
I'm (name here), and I approve this message. This is required by law.

From PC World (http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,115291,00.asp):
One new rule requires television and radio commercials promoting a specific candidate to include a statement by the candidate endorsing the ad's message. That's why Kerry includes "I'm John Kerry, and I approve this message" in his political commercials. This tagline is required since 2002, with passage of the McCain-Feingold campaign law. The idea behind the provision is to keep candidates from running negative ads anonymously by forcing a personal association between the candidates and any controversial claims.
