Both are pretty bad.
I voted for the Obama campaign in the poll but then again I'm hardly an impartial source.
To quite honest folks, as long as most Americans see more value in scoring cheap political points by taking the easy road of convincing themselves their political opponents are the human incarnation of Satan himself than having something resembling a constructive debate, we're only going to see more and more of this. Politics is now entertainment rather than information. It's a constant barrage of lies aimed at demonizing the other side and pretending they aren't human. But hey once you say some complete bullsh!t about the other side just claim it's "ironic" or "hyperbole" or that you were joking. Take a cheap shot to feel good about yourself; these days it's the American way.
After years of Republicans on the street calling Obama an Atheist Muslim Socialist born in Kenya whose life ambition is to increase the dominance of the government so he can control everyone's lives and now the wave of Democrats on the street saying Mitt Romney isn't a person, hates dogs, causes cancer, and wants to reinstate slavery and Paul Ryan is actually Ayn Ran, quite frankly we as the American people don't deserve much better than what we're getting.
