Just guessing & opining (no evidence): if as little as 10 percent of the funds going into these ads went into creating productive jobs, the economy would rebound. More, and it would come back SMARTLY.

But no... GOP and right-wing leadership don't want that to happen.

If GOP rank-and-file were to think about it (fat chance), they might consider going Progressive this November.

Republican Activist Judges brought to you by thgse who brought you bush and who want nothing more than to further their destruction of our country. Sink the republican ship by any means necessary.

Election campaign reform...who needs it. The supreme court turned it into a spending free-for-all and that's what democracy and capitalism is all about.

Let the buying of our legislators and politicos continue.

Billions spent on advertising campaigns this year alone. It's good for the economy right?
