it's definitely easier to take the 'attack route,' but that's the sort of campaign that frustrates and dissuades me a great deal. it has been steadily increasing in recent years, and it makes a great diversion so the candidates don't have to actually address what their plans are & how they feel about important issues.
this ad is straightforward, honest (from what i can discern, anyhow; it -is- a politician, haha), and directly addresses the viewer.
it's f*cking brilliant, really.
