People you wish would dissapear from your TV screen forever

I get what you are saying, and you are correct you should not base your vote on commercials.

my comment was directed at the statement about removing all of Congress, the Senate and the white house from TV.

the free press is a vital portion of democracy and now more than ever its important that people pay attention. It's hard to find good journalism you need to be vigilant

It appears that you missed the rest of the sentence...."and all the associated mid-term smear your opponent commercials."

But I understand emotions are high with all the partisan side picking stuff. The point is, I do not care for the ridiculous smear tactics these commercials have morphed into. Sad and pathetic in my opinion. And certainly none of these commercials would sway any decisions I make at the polling place.

Also, I am kinda sick of "Flo" the Progressive insurance lady commercials. ;)

P.S. I too think free speech and unbiased reporting is important.
