Ever notice political ads have their 'approved by' messages at the beginnning when the ad is negative about their opponent? Do you know why that is? Because if the 'approved by' message is at the end, their name is the last thing you'll hear and associate with either the negative ad or the accusation. The positive, feel good, 'this-is-me-with-my-loving-wife-and-monkey-children' ads are always followed by the 'approved by' message. Sorry, not fooling me.
Not always true, spent the last two weeks split between Tennessee, Georgia and this last week Minnesota. Most of the negative ads in these hotbeds still had the paid for note at the end.
