When voters are passionate about an issue attack ads accomplish nothing. Voters are passionate about Obamacare and Amnesty.

Not like guns. There is no massive grass roots organisation like the NRA.

The recalls in Colorado were organized by ordinary folks in Colorado, not the NRA. NRA, to their credit, ran a few ads. That was it. This was a 100% grassroots effort.

Interestingly enough, more democrats than republicans voted to recall Angela Giron in Pueblo. The gun laws, environmental laws and election laws were rammed through like Obamacare was. That, more than the laws themselves, prompted the recalls.

Is Obamacare disliked as much as what the Colorado state nuthouse did? If so, the money spent on attack ads won't matter.
