RE: What is the effect of political ads, particularly negative ones?

I think that they have their place and time. But particularly for negative ads, I think that the mistake that is often made is; that "if a little bit is good, more must be better". Especially if they are appearing to make a big deal out of very little, I have to fight the urge to go the other way.
