24. It's the same old, same old tired ads

There's the 2024 version of Willie Horton, this time starring an illegal immigrant criminal.
There's the 2024 version of "she's a liberal!".
And that's about all they have, but these ads are running all the time here in PA. I doubt they're persuading anyone.

I agree about Hillary, the Rs had been attacking her and Bill relentlessly since he became governor of Arkansas. By 2016, it was 30+ years of non-stop smears and hit jobs. Opinons about her were pretty set in stone by the time she won the nomination.

Trump is yesterday's news. Harris is the candidate of change like Trump was in 2016.
