Political ads, redux

[korafox]

Do they really think we voters will see this doom-and-gloom ad saying "Candidate X is a CAREER POLITICIAN who received ONE MILLION DOLLARS of TAXPAYER MONEY over a 32-year career" and not be able to work out that this amounts to a salary of just slightly over $30k a year?  Are public servants and their families supposed to wear sackcloth and ashes and abandon their vocation after some arbitrary number of years, now?

...Don't answer that question omigods I just want this election to be over already.
