BROOKFIELD, Ill. (FOX Chicago News) -
One more thing, about the political mean season.
So, it has begun again. The negative commercials. The attack ads. With the number of undecided voters for president shrinking to single digits, the campaigns have become more desperate, and the spots more vicious.
Both parties complain about them, but they continue because they work, the experts say.
Well, what I think would work far better would be a political ad that's so kind and gentle, it would stand out and reflect a candidate whose character would win over all the voters.
Who's going to be the first candidate crazy enough to do something like that?
