Know the facts
As we're heading deeper into this election season, we're bound to see many ads and hear many claims from both sides. I think it's important, regardless of which side you're leaning towards, to know the facts, and where the spin and hype is distorting the truth. I've found a web site that claims to be non-partisan (and appears to me to be fairly evenhanded), and examines the claims made by politician.

Man, why do all politicians have to lie? Could an honest one ever actually be elected?

you should run
Some of their nit picking could itself be nit picked. E.g. it is silly to call for the opposite newspaper editorial opinion to be expressed in a political ad. But it is important to keep the American tradition of critical thinking with respect to politicians and government going.
