What are your views on the latest political ads on TV? What canidate(s) do you like or dislike and why?

The political people seem to make their comercials about farming and courntry life styles to try and get people in South Dakota to vote for them. I don't understand why they think they need to come along and claim they are true South Dakotan and know what South Dakota needs when they havent grown up here and or lived in a larger city.
As for liking or disliking any canidates, i have not really followed any elections due to the fact i never really felt the need to. But now being in government class and becoming of age to vote, I definately have to look into this and not be another aimless voter or a non voter.
