So it seems both campaigns super-pacs are getting into the mud slinging game with lies. The GOP has an ad out claiming Obama is "gutting" the work for welfare program claiming you don't have to do anything to get your check. Politifact rated the ad as a pants on fire lie because its false.

Obama's super-pac has an ad claiming that Bain fired a whole company and profit off of it and then the worker goes on to talk about how his wife died from cancer and it implies that somehow Mittens is indirectly at fault for this. The truth is that the woman died 5 years after he lost his job and people responsible for the ad claim that's not what they are trying to say.

I don't understand what kind of idiots fall for these ads. Most people know who they are voting for and if your dumb enough to base your vote on an attack ad then you really shouldn't have the right to vote IMHO

They do it, because history shows that it works....

Ya Kelly it makes me sick that weak minded people can be swayed so easily. I mean do some research the internet is there for a reason

I laugh, but also get a bit angry at how dirty both sides' ads get closer and closer to election day.

Neither candidate has a record of achievement that they can point to, so it's just an onslaught of personal attacks by both sides. "Vote for me because I'm NOT the other guy." That's the gist of these two campaigns so far, which is pathetic and hilarious at the same time.

Doom and gloom, D's and R's leading us into that Monetary Collapse...
