Governor's race ads top $10 million

So that's about $2.25 each for every man, woman, and child in the state of Alabama in TV ads alone. Nearly every one of which is maliciously negative and hence largely true. About $3 million has been spent in Birmingham alone... By the way, the negativity is spreading to other campaigns, though it's not nearly as well-crafted. One commercial for some post, I'm honestly not sure what, basically came down to "my opponent is a dirty liberal and he likes Teddy Kennedy". You know, real eighties stuff.

Three more weeks of this?
