And it's becoming more and more commonplace in national politics as well. The media environment is so crowded now that people have to be increasingly outrageous and provocative to get noticed. Hence, you get ads like this, Saxby Chambliss' cruel slime job against Max Clelland in 2002, etc. You don't always see them run by the candidates themselves like this Corzine attack was, but they're increasingly commonplace.<br /><br />When LBJ's campaign ran the "Daisy" ad against Barry Goldwater in 1964, many considered it unconscionable. If such an ad ran today, it would almost be considered bland and tame.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09593093896643755523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7458724113457799001.post-38385416018523453422009-09-24T18:40:45.017-04:002009-09-24T18:40:45.017-04:00How fearless of Christie indeed?
