God, it is mid Sept and the political ads are already flooding our air waves.
Our local stations come out of Cincinnati, even though we live in Kentucky. Tonight, for some reason, we ended up watching the late nite comedy shows instead of watching something on the Roku.
My God! The number of political ads was incredible and the one thing I noticed and that turned my stomach was that every single ad for a Republican was a slimy attack against the Democrat running against them and was full of half-truths and outright lies. And just about every Democrat ad was a positive ad for what the candidate wanted to do for Ohio.
I guess it is time to tune out watching network and local channels until after the election. Watching the slimy GOP at work is not good for my blood pressure.
