I think that, when a person participates in early voting, a media filter should automatically be created so that a person no longer has to listen to either side's propaganda. 

La La La La La!  Your ads and commercials and last minute phone calls would be meaningless to me even if they could influence my vote!

(You, f-list, are excluded from this whine, as you tend to be, you know, more thoughtful and intelligent than those getting paid to talk politics to me.)

I do not watch news on TV or listen to it on the radio and the handy thirty-second-skip button on my remote gets rid of all the TV ads. This is how I always live my life, but I am especially grateful for it during election years.

The only calls we've gotten lately are one get-out-the-vote call each on Saturday, because we live in Vermont and I guess everyone already knows how we're going to vote.

Yeah, I'm cut off from a lot, but I listen to the radio when driving, and there are mailers and billboards and messages on my machine when i get home...

*wave* Hey. I also live in Vermont, and yeah, I haven't seen any propaganda either way for either side for Presidential. There's been a lot for Gubernatorial, though, although isn't it hilarious how Symington and Douglas are swiping at each-other and entirely ignoring Pollina?

(I do not have TV and only listen to NPR, and still, I end up seeing these things . . .)
