Just as a premise I hate political ads, especially when they go negative and don't pay them a lot of attention.
But I've noticed that of the negative ones here candidates, even for local races like mayor and such, the Dems are often being compared to Nancy Pelosi... "Too extreme for Iowa..."
Or Bernie Sanders, socialist, Etc. I find it curious that none of the Repubs are being compared to Trump but instead are being painted as rich white guys typically (or white gal in the case of our governorette).
Is this similar in other parts?
