10. The power of TV ads

is gradually diminishing as people drop cable and toss their TV's.

The times of lazy politicians making a few speeches and debates and then running 3 info-commercials, their challenger responding with 5 ads and then comes 6 ads in rebuttal by the first guy and on and on until both campaigns have spent millions on media.

This is the "Corporatists" propaganda, you need mega-bucks to win so don't even bother unless you have corporate sponsers backing you and requiring your allegiance.

I hope Chuy blows him away with an inexpensive campaign of shoes on the ground.
