Every year campaigning gets nastier and nastier, ungodly amounts are spent and everyone cries about campaign reform until the election is over and then forgets about it until the next election. You can't weed through all the BS to find out what they really stand for.
Even in the small town I live in (population 27,000) we have a candidate for Mayor that has spent over $200,000 of HIS OWN MONEY on his campaign. He just moved into the city 3 months ago, no one has seen him at his so called residence and you get slick multi page photo fliers from him for a part-time position that pays $13,000 a year. WTF!!!
