I don't think the public swallows the BS down here, just the 24-hour media feeding frenzy - scumbag journalists so desperate for something to talk about in the slow month of August that they jumped on a 500,000$ ad buy in 3 states and turned it into a 2 weeklong orgy. Every person I know, republican and democrat, knows this garbage for what it is.
