I will be so thankful that I will not receive all the phone calls.  I don't even answer my phone any more, I let the answering machine take it and then if it is someone I want to talk to, I will pick it up.

I will be so glad when Election Day is over.  I don't even answer calls I don't recognize.  I'm sure they are all political.

Me too.   I have not received any election phone calls but then again if I don't know the number I don't answer.
I am just sick of the slamming ads and everything anybody says has to be turned into something political.  Everyone gets ONE vote and everyone has a right to their own opinion.  But for some reason some people can't see that.  But even after the election you will have months of he said she said and he done that and she done that and this wasn't fair and that wasn't fair.  Our votes weren't counted right and on and on.  OUR votes don't really matter anyway.  ALL that counts are the electorial votes.   :BangHead:

Grrr.  Just a few more days.  Then they can clog the airways some some other non sense.   ::)

If you haven't seen it yet, you should check out the video of the little girl in Colorado who is crying because she has heard too much about "Bronco Bama" and Mitt Romney.  I'm sure you can find it on YouTube or elsewhere.  Funny stuff and apropos.

I have, and I agree with her. Seems Billions spent on this election. We should pass a law allowing only 3 months for ad campaigns, etc etc. What do you think?

Yes, I agree with that...only I would say only 1 month of it.

Yeah, I'm glad that the election will soon be over with and done. I remember getting a notice or a note in the mail from my employer and the other one was from the white house. They were telling me that they noticed that I'm not a registered voter and that I should go vote. No thanks, you can't pay me enough to vote for anyone.

Yes voting isn't what it was before people are almost trying to either make you vote or focusing you not to vote. But it's sad  :thumbsup:

I missed the early voting window so, I'm voting on voting day.I hate voting but this time it's really critical that everyone votes.

What boggles the mind is seeing how both parties raised trillions & trillions of dollars for this election. The trillions spent on negative & positive ads. :bs:

It would be okay if the ads was straight forward just facts & not the crap twisting around words that mean one thin only to mean another!

Think of the possibilities we could have with those trillions  & trillions of dollars! Instead of voting for a president, why not save the economy, create more jobs,have our roads bridges repaired,give teachers more training for better teaching skills, maybe put out a few billion to save our planet.

Also, focus on creating a bill that will forbid PAC & super donations; one should win due to his or her skills & ability & not cuz he got donations from his rich friends! :thumbsup: :wave:
