#1 Yeah? And the PUBLIC doesn't like forged documents used to smear in a "news" report. But the PUBLIC has little to say about the way the newrooms are run either...

#2 Depends how they are offered. I like a little humor. The grim, dark ads that claim "Senator X voted no on Proposition L. Why does X want seniors, policemen, and baby duckies to die?" are obnoxious and stupid. On the other hand, the John Kerry weather vane ad was f*cking hilarious.

#3 Well, there are negative ads, and there are negative ads.

The ones about Kerry not earning his medals or whatever are just annoying and not helpful.

Those talking about Kerry's voting record in the Senate are "negative," but are talking about his position(s) on the issues, so actually serve a purpose.

#5 The public probably doesn't like ads at all (unless, for the male viewers, there are some hot chicks in them).

#6 I like the Southwest Air "Must be football season again" ads.... and the new Miller Ads with the Beer Referees are hilarious :-)

#7 So are you saying the ultimate political ad would have Claudia Schiffer, wearing Victoria's Secrets, lying on silk sheets, whispering "I Love Bush"?
