I'm sorry, but the only people stupid enough to be influenced by political ads, are the same people stupid enough to vote without doing any thinking for themselves.

If you like Pepsi better than Coke, no tv spot or magazine spread is going to change your mind. Honestly I have a really hard time justifying most of the money people spend on advertising, other than it keeps people in advertising employed.
