From sign language to football coaches, here are six of this season's best political ads.(so far). Personally, I like Kay Hagan's (4) and Republican Mike McFadden's (3) ads best.

Did McFadden really run an ad where he gets squirrel tapped?
Outstanding. Good ad, sir, good ad.
"Insane" doesn't even begin to cover it. WTF has happened to responsible elective representation from either party??!!?? Irresponsible, pandering em-eff-ers all . . .
This Road Work Made Possible by Underfunding Pensions
If you define “fiscal responsibility” solely in terms of whether the federal budget deficit grows or shrinks over a 10-year window, you can reach the conclusion that the foregoing plan serves the goal of “fiscal responsibility.” Which only goes to show that politicians in both parties have settled on an insane definition of “fiscal responsibility.”

Republican Zombie Lies: they keep repeating them despite the observable facts that negate them.
The Evils of Outsourcing and Subcontracting pervade our economy.
Very few individuals have the tools to negotiate fair and reasonable work conditions on their own in a hostile jobs environment brought about by employers' race to the bottom of the pay scale. But R's call this the Free Market and say we should let the "invisible hand" take care of the messy details.
Walmart's defense will be that it is not their employee, not their work rules, not their responsibility for what this guy did. Yep, Walmart had nothing to do with any of it……….
US House chairman: $3.7 billion request 'too much'
Step 1: Accuse the President of not doing enough to secure the border.
Step 2: Goad the President into proposing billions to try and mitigate the problem.
Step 3: Say it's too much money.
Step 4: Accuse the President of not doing enough to secure the border.
Maybe the problem is drug related ? . . .
Wierd . . .

Yet the Houose yesterday approved $287 billion in business tax cuts without a corresponding offset. Too much money my ass.
The GOP strategy is to keep the deficit rising so they can blame Obama…
The media will just report the slow rate of economic growth, stagnant wages and rising deficit — not the fact that it's the Republican Congress that is the primary culprit.
The bad news for the GOP is that the deficit is projected to drop even further to about $492 billion next year. Expect more Santa Claus bills for the wealthy that mean ol' Democrats will have to vote against.
Are you sure they're not simply trying to drown government in a bathtub?
They'll resume that process if/when they gain control of both Houses and/or the Presidency.
See all the GOP states that are slowly circling the drain from rising poverty, poor schools and misplaced priorities (more guns, fewer insured, shutdown women's clinics, taxpayer subsidized private/religious schools, etc.)
You mean the ones that Gerrymandered themselves into an overthrow-proof Republican majority?
Yep, them's the one I'm talkin' about. Their day will come — none too soon.
What R's don't want you to know: there is currently a $71 BILLION BUDGET SURPLUS

Frey then explained his view: “When you have egg and sperm that meet in conception, there’s an enzyme in the front that burns through the egg. The enzyme burns through so the DNA can enter the egg. If the sperm is deposited anally, it's the enzyme that causes the immune system to fail. That’s why the term is AIDS – acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.”
Here's the thing. Someone, somewhere, had to come up with this theory. They had to think about it, possibly while high on all of the nation's available drugs, and tell themselves that yeah, that must be how AIDS works. It must be because wayward sperms that don't find eggs cause you to die. The common cold is caused by tiny invisible rhinoceroses, why the hell not, and when you sneeze that's just your lungs trying to escape in order to fly back to their home planet, Neptune.
Jeebus, people. Just … Jeebus.

Make This stuff up file:
Last paragraph should also be in quotes. Not my words but from daily kos. Don't know what happened with dangling repeat of Make this stuff Up. All in all, close enough. Wish editing was easier.
Is that Minnesota state House or U.S. House candidate? I can see him being a worthy successor to Michelle "HPV vaccine" Bachman serving on the House Science and Technology Committee.
State House.
For any of our righties saying to themselves… hey, it sounds sciency to me:

It's caused by a virus, anal transmission completely optional.
It's God's punishment. For what? I dunno. Name something.
I just picked this up from 7News Denver: http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/local-news/recall-effort-for-el-paso-county-sheriff-falls-short
Too bad they couldn't have gotten just a few hundred more signatures. But he'll be gone by January – and in the meantime, he will be a huge embarrassment and reminder to El Paso Republicans that just cause someone talks the "family values, guns everywhere" line does not mean that they are in any meaningful way a conservative.
I hope that Maketa is a dead weight on all GOP candidates in the Springs.
Tommy Tank unloads on Ryan Call and Both Ways

I felt dirty reading that, like going through a family's dirty laundry, eww.
Jeez, for a guy that hardly campaigned and really didn't seem to care, he's really taking his loss hard. Here you go Tanc, this is for you:
Victimhood — it's a core value and the mark of a true, dyed in the wool, GOPer . . .
. . . only difference between Tanc and Dan Maes, is Maes got someone to write him a whole book of whine.
Tanc needs to find a ghostwriter. (Maybe Scott McInnis is available?)
He's just reestablishing himself as a D list wacko rightie celeb, which was the real point of this latest campaign. Needed to breathe some new life into his fading D list fame.
Last time he established his wacko cred by going third party. This time he hopes just making anti-establishment noises will be enough to keep him popular with the Palin crowd for a while longer. Both times he's been completely aware that he wasn't ever going to be Governor. But he might be invited to join in a few more choruses of Dixie at White Supremacist events again. Be a speaker at some nativist immigrant bashing rallies. That sort of thing.
True – notice that the kicker at the end of his article is a plug for his book and a sign up sheet for his "Hey, are you stupid enough to send me more money?" Newsletter.
