2010: Democrats Set Records for Dirtiest Election Ever

"Everything you are seeing on TV is a shameful lie."
That statement didn't come from an ad-weary voter, but it certainly could have.
It's actually a quote from GOP state Sen. Mick Mulvaney of South Carolina.
The reason for Mulvaney's disgust? Democrats recently aired an ad showing police booking an elderly woman into jail, as a narrator warns seniors that Mulvaney may take away their Social Security.
Mulvaney, running for Congress against Democratic Rep. John Spratt, called the 30-second spot "one of the most offensive and frightening ads I think I've ever seen."
As bad as it is, that ad may not even be the worst of this season's dirty campaign advertising tricks.
Just ask Ben Kalasho, who's running for city council in Santee, Calif., northeast of San Diego. One morning he got a call from a voter asking why he was putting up campaign posters in Arabic. . . . .
