They played several from all candidates. It was clear that the theme was "slam your opponent" and when they interviewed the people they asked to listen, not one liked the campaigns and most said they didn't pay attention to them. BUT - the announcer also noted that studies have shown that smear campaigns do sway the voting public. I think it's because they aren't informed to begin with and so they believe whatever they hear on the way to the polls. Not a very good reflection of our country that is "supposed" to be one of the best educated.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744477289341631197.post-41738043060823574912010-11-04T08:00:43.066-04:002010-11-04T08:00:43.066-04:00I would LOVE to see that theater!

Hold your heads high!<br /><br />Your bracelets are quite stunning! Extra credit to you for doing so many and not getting bored. Your gift recipients will love them!<br /><br />And *sigh* the Fox Theater. I simply must see it the next time I visit Hotlanta. Will you be so kind as to show me around?<br /><br />What a great post! Thanks for sharing so many details of your big night.IsDiharahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129251975229390303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744477289341631197.post-2920471270830957752010-11-04T00:42:46.849-04:002010-11-04T00:42:46.849-04:00Great post about the Fox theater.

What a shame if it had been torn down - and kudos to those who saved it!! <br /><br />I admire those who run for office who truly want to serve the public, and who conduct honest campaigns. It's a tough loss, but some good may come of it down the road. I'm sure his integrity did not go unnoticed.<br /><br />Love the bracelets!!!Kathy Niklewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471658272689112787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744477289341631197.post-40224122755225965322010-11-04T00:29:50.005-04:002010-11-04T00:29:50.005-04:00Maybe it's more peaceful than it would have be...Maybe it's more peaceful than it would have been if your husband HAD won - think of all the upheaval!<br />Fabulous theatre, I hope they never pull it down.

That's a lot of work, though, going through a campaign like that not to win! Even if he was in the wrong party, I hate it for him.<br />That theater reminds me of the Tennessee and the Bijou theaters in Knoxville.
