Those who know me know I'm a political junkie. One of the sites I find really helpful in learning the facts about what politicans say is FactCheck. FactCheck has just put up this article about how to evaluate political ads, evaluating one from a Republican candidate and one from a Democratic candidate. I highly recommend this article as one way of preparing yourself for the November 2008 election (and oh how I wish we weren't think about that in October of 2007!).

The title of the article is "How to spot political ads powered only by hot air."
