What are your views on the latest political ads on TV?  What candidate(s) do you like or dislike and why?

What role do you feel that you will play in politics and government in the future?  What ways are you participating currently?

Although I don't really watch much TV, I don't like how the ads are just bashing the other candidates. I never see them saying why I should vote for them, only why I shouldn't vote for someone else. In my opinion, they should be making themselves look good instead of making the other people seem bad. They should play their own game instead of someone else's. One of the candidates I like is Stephanie Herseth. I feel like at least what I've seen that she runs her own race. She tells everyone what she will do, and what she thinks and believes instead of what other people do wrong.
I am currently registered to vote, and I can look into what the truth is about certain candidates to help me reach my decision. I can also talk to other people to get the facts.
