Reply to comment by Heynony in Democratic Rep. Jahana Hayes, Republican challenger tied in heavily blue Connecticut: poll by jr_reddit

If your mind is changed by a political ad on TV I'd say you probably shouldn't be voting.

This shows a poor understanding of advertising

No no, I understand advertising pretty well, I'm not saying they don't work on people, I'm saying those the commercials work on shouldn't be voting.

But it’s not like one commercial works on practically anybody, they just slowly wear down your subconscious over months, years, decades

...and political ads aren't run for years or decades.

You seem to be suggesting that Jahana Hayes is NOT a very very bad person. How could that be? All these random people in the ads over & over again say she's done all these terrible things to the world economy; they wouldn't lie to us, would they?

I dont know what the downvoting is for, this is my point. If you believe the things mentioned about Rep. Hayes (or just about any other politician) in a 30 second hit add, than you shouldn't be voting in an election as you're likely clueless.
