The phrase “corporate raider” has a particular meaning in the world of finance. Here’s the definition on Investopedia: “An investor who buys a large number of shares in a corporation whose assets appear to be undervalued. The large share purchase would give the corporate raider significant voting rights, which could then be used to push changes in the company’s leadership and management. This would increase share value and thus generate a massive return for the raider.”

So are you saying that the Dems are using techniques that should be reserved for the Cheap-Labor Conservatives?

Wouldnt it be nice if politcal ads were used to explain a candidate's policy positions instead of just a bunch of attack ads? Maybe we need a no negative ad law.

It's not that it's negative - it's that it is an outright lie!

Obamacares cut $500,000,000 from Medicare is what I would call an outright lie. Referring to it as government run healthcare is an outright lie. That it mentions jail time for not having insurance. Obama is a socialist. Everything is says is a lie. He is a racist. He is the anti-Christ. He is a Muslim. He is anti-gun. Shall I go on?
