Did Perot get hurt from his infomercials?



Or is it just candidates that y'all disagree with that get "backlash" from every single possible action they could take?


Did Perot's infomercial delay the resumption of a potentially decisive World Series game? Were Perot and his supporters completely over-saturated in the media coverage for the better part of a year prior to the infomercials? Did Perot's ads completely blanket every swing state for months prior to the infomericials?


I'm not saying for certain that the infomercials will create a backlash and have a net negative effect for Obama, but given the circumstances I really wouldn't be surprised if they did to at least some extent.

That's another way of putting it. Coroporations evil. Working people good. You helpless victim. Bordering on dangerous protectionism (ie: prevent outsourcing). Does nothing to really address the root of these problems.


For once, I'd like some politician or reporter to actually question WHY some of these people are having their homes foreclosed in the first place. Could it be that they were wrecklessly spending beyond their means? No corporation FORCED them into taking out that loan or mortgage...whatever happened to individual responsibility?
