Election 2004 Coverage: Battle rages on airwave war

BostonHerald.com - Election 2004 Coverage: Battle rages on airwave war

This news article pretty much sums up why I'm so sick and tired of politics right now. The Democrats are accusing the Republicans of launching a smear campaign through the Swift Boat Veterans deal. They say it'll backfire because people will get sick of hearing the negative attacks. Of course, they fail to consider that after Farenheit 9/11 and a year of Bush = Hitler, some people might already be sick of the negative campaigning. In fact, I can give George Soros, Moveon.org and Michael Moore all the credit for swaying my vote early on this time around. This new round of caviling and puling only strengthens my resolve.

I have a lot of respect for GWB for condemning the SBV ads, but I can't recall the Democrats or John Kerry apologizing for any of the scathing anti-Bush material that has been floating around for the last four years. One of my biggest pet peeves is hypocrisy. George Bush may be a lot of things but at least he's up-front about his intentions... sheesh.
