Just saw a Tillis commercial while watching the Panthers play Tampa Bay

What a pile of BS!

Paid for by the US Chamber of Commerce.

Tag line: Moving North Carolina Forward.

Completely identified Kay Hagan with Obama--get that code racist crap in--
and filled with lies about the Obama administration.

Another terrific example of Republicans naming what they do with the opposite.
Tillis and his State Legislative cronies have turned back the clock at least 50
years here in NC.

Damn. I have never been so tempted to go to a candidate's website and call
him a complete lying POS.

Anybody else ready to throw things at the TV already?

Election season, it's PBS and TCM, neither of which have commercials. That means no "issue oriented" ad lavishly funded by Kochs taking advantage of CU will ever air.

If I want to watch anything that's on a commerical channel, I'll watch in the bedroom. That TV is a CRT set and it's starting to go. Hurrying its demise with a hurled boot won't cost me much.

Isn't it amazing how Republican lies and BS make non-violent people want to destroy things?

by referring to Obama's policies and the economic collapse of 2008 and 2009 - did Obama's policies make things better for big business or small business?

They are trying to leave the impression that Obama's policies were for the rich and that GOP sides with small business and middle class.

The wording throughout the poll was total bullshit.

I don't think Republicans are capable of telling the truth...certainly
not if it makes them uncomfortable.
