I read that Iowa has had over 100 thousand TV political ads since August and that's not a joke.

aren't . like that guy who asked about Benghazi at the debate.

many others are attention whores. i wish they wouldn't have town hall debates with undecideds only. why not let people who believe in something ask. why cater to ignorant attention whores.

they have the time to attend these debates they can easily research the answer to their question. and they would find out a more honest answer that way since they can look up candidate's records. not just what they say at a debate when they are trying to win your vote.
