TELL US: Which Candidate Has Bugged You the Most?
The candidates are into their final push, reaching out to voters in all sorts of ways.
With just a couple of days left until election day, each campaign is in its final stretch.
In many cases, that includes inundating voters with contact, including phone calls, yard signs, flyers in the mail and endless television ads.
Regardless of your political stripe, more than likely you have been subjected to most of this.
Which part of the final push has bugged you the most? Which candidate have you heard from the most? Tell us in the comments section below.

Liz Warren has bugged me the most with her lies about fighting for the middle class. Working for big corporations and being the intellectual founder of the occupy movement are outrageous. Also the fact she will still not admit she lied about being a native American Indian on college lists is a disgrace.

Scott Brown ads show women stating that he supports equal pay yet he voted against it. He also voted against other women issues and supported continuing tax credits for big oil,

If John Baker who is the Chief of the Cherokee Nation says she is then guess what shes is. I think its sad that some people in Ma still hate native american people.

Scott Brown, for his attacks on Elizabeth Warren. Just ugly stuff, and none of it based on fact. And Mitt Romney, for being a smarmy liar. Remember, people, when he was governor of MA, he ditched out to work on the Olympics. "More interested in having the job than doing the job" best quote of this election.

Stanley, word for word, I am in complete agreement with you, Except that I think you let romney off easy by Merely calling him a smarmy liar. He's that for sure, but I think there is no level beneath which he will not slither to win this election. God help the working class if he should somehow win.

Jeanne - I believe in true statements which are usually backed by facts. So, if you would be so kind, would you provide facts and/or sources for your claim that Warren "moved ahead in college and grad school by lying about their heritage!" Generally in this country it is necessary to prove someone is guilty of something rather than having to prove one is innocent. So how about some facts!

Elizabeth Warren is a manufactured robot created by the Liberals for one purpose and that is to take a seat in the Senate,not because she is qualified in any way ,but because she tells the mindless masses of Dems in this state that she is gonna reach down and pick up the middle class. The best part is She rails aginst the "Big Guys in Washington" and how the game is rigged against the common man,Well who is the biggest guy in Washington?... thats right Barack Obama.but somehow that fact escapes 50% of the voters in Mass. Scott Brown is one of the most bipartisan Senators in Washington,we need many more like him if we ever want to break the gridlock in D.C. The only guarantee you get with Ms. Warren is that she will always vote on a partisan basis whether its good for YOU or not.

The MV Times editorial endorsing the Romney ticket ignores the record,slips by the facts and shifts real blame from his party's creation of the debt,the never-ending filabusters against meaningful legislation,the avoidance schemes for paying taxes,the distain for the "unmotivate"poor,war as asolution for everything,even economic progress and pats the backs of the greedy and racists on their heartfelt agendas. Most MV Times go right from the mailbox to the closest bin.Now I see why. Really annoying tripe.

I find Brown and Warren equally annoying on different levels. Even my 6 year old son said to me over dinner "Mumma did you know that Elizabeth Warren and Scott Brown don't even know who they are???" I guess what I find even more annoying is that the residents of Massachusetts are doubly punished by be forced to endore all the NH political ads as well. Seriously?? Come on NH - get your own TV station!!!

I've secen what a republican congress can do absolutely nothing, worst congress in history. The country gives them a 10 percent rating, So every ad thats comes from the republican super packs are full of BS.I mute them or dvr my shows and ff through them. Not that the democrats are any better Unfortunatly everybody has to spend billions to get elected The super packs have to go.No way I would put the draft dogeing, tax evading, Robber baron in the white house.not that barack is any better president just the lesser of political evil. as far as Brown I've read his record of the 40 bills he wrote, not one did he cross the isle ,to get passed thats a failure as senator to me.lets vote and get it over with

I am so tired of watching Elizabeth Warren with her winey voice. Her debate with Scott Brown was like she was reading the script to one of her TV commercials.
As for Obama, he will always be a community organizer who cares more about hitting the late night talk show circuit to promote his campaign than to answer the question of why the American Embassy in Libera's request for more security went unanswered. Obama is supposed tho be the Commander in Chief - this is his job! He is ultimately responsible for what happened to those American's and should know the answer to this question. It's his job! The excuse of :we're still looking into it", is unacceptable. He should already know the answer!
Instead Obama focuses on Mitt Romney's 14% tax rate? Isn't Obama the President? If he disagrees with Romney paying 14% shouldn't Obama do something about it? And isn't Obama paying the same 14% on his taxes?
And who pays for all the security and Air Force One expenses when Obama goes on the Tonight Show, or flies to Boston to campaign for Martha Coakley, or bings a professor and a police officer to the White House for a beer? We do! I am tired of seeing Obama run the country like a Cruise Director. We need a leader with a plan, who will create jobs, lower the deficit, get our credit rating back and take the responsibilty to make it a priority to protect Americans who represent our county on foreign soil. I vote for Mitt Romney!

Sorry Cathy - I can't let everything you wrote go unanswered. Lets see, where should we start. Could comment on the debates however it isn't worth and as far as who won, I believe Brown's refusal to have a fourth debate answers that question.
About Obama not answering all the questions under the excuse he is trying to find out all the facts. Far better to shoot from the hip like Romney did the night it happened which, by the way, received criticism from members of his own party for not being factual.
Third, Obama pays more than the 14% tax rate that Romney paid, plus his income was far below that of Romneys. And one more minor fact, those non-political statements that Republican's ignore, President Obama and the Dems have introduced many bills in the U.S. House that would increase the tax rate for those earning above $250,000, bills that have been defeated by the Republican majority. Just stating the FACT that Obama and Dems have tried to do something about it.
Lastly, the use of Air Force One has been used by all Presidents for some personal usage, including your Republican's Bush I, Bush II and indeed Ragan. I have spent a lot of time in Kennebunkport, Maine, and I know, repeat know all the work done on the Bush home on Walker's Point under the claim of "security." I don't have information on monies spent on Bush's ranch in Texas and would love to see that.

The past four years, hands down - Obuma! This Administration leaves people struggling to simply survive. It's EXACTLY whats taking place in the aftermath of "Sandy". Guess what is saving those poor souls - private organizations such as The Red Cross, townships opening gyms, firestations and various shelters and the numerous churches preparing meals. Citizens lining up to donate blood, their time, their money and their efforts is what is providing relief. Its regular people, without regard to political party or bureaucracy, that truly help people when there is a need. There's been a NEED for 4 years now. A clearer example - Venezuela reelection of Chavez. His policies have made so many in the country so poor that the only thing they care about is who will provide them their next free meal. Chavez has welfare kitchens in every neighborhood that provide free rations. When someone is destitute and totally ependent upon handouts, big issues have no room in their lives to matter. The Chavez's strategy is exactly will play-out, if Obuma is re-elected.

Scott Brown's campaign has been one of the most offensive I've ever experienced. Essentially all his ads have been attacks and lies, with some endorsements tossed in. I find his attempts to make Elizabeth Warren look physically unattractive in his ads especially disgusting. Brown stays away from real issues, and his campaign has been a vacuous travesty. He's paying the price. Bad move to use Fernstrom as his tactician.

From the beginning I had brown pegged as a phony and he has done nothing to change my opinion of him. his selection of the unflattering picture of ms Warren in his tv ads just shows his lack of character. It's juvenile, at best. Just as I eagerly await romney's concession speech, I look forward with equal glee to browns.

Sorry to disagree, Ollie D. but as far as I'm concerned, the President should know the facts about an American embassy who has aked for increased security immediately. And if he wasn't informed of this then he should be cleaning house. Americans asked for help and died because their country didn't respond. This is ultimately the responsibility of the President. Maybe he should spend more time in daily briefings and less time on "The View". Let me put it to you like this: If I owned a Airline and the workers complained that the planes weren't safe, and nothing was done to correct the problem. And then one of planes crashes - who would be responsible for the deaths of those passengers? Who would be sued for negligence. Would I be able to say - Oh yes, I am looking in to it and the do the talk show circuit? If he is not accountable for his actions, and he doen't know the answers - then he is not doing his job and needs to be let go. And if that doesn't make sense to you, then let me just say this: Joe Biden.

I love truth. In an election campaign, as in war, the first casualty is the truth. All political ads deliberately distort the opponent's points of view, and it is this which i find most offensive. So i nominate this "Straw Man" rhetoric, from whoever employs it, as the biggest bugger.

If anyone here is looking for some enlightenment, then watch a documentary called "Politocracy". Basically it says they all suck. And I tend to agree. I also learned that Simpson/Boles budget was shot down by both sides of the aisle but oddly enough supported by the President who actually put together this bi-partisan panel. Not a lot of detail on the buget in this flick, but you can always go look for yourself. In my opinion, it was an opportunity for this country to make some progress. Instead, we get the hard core left and right pissing all over the rest of us. If you want to read a sad testimony to our current situation, check out Rep. Steven LaTourette(R-Ohio). He's quitting congress after 18 because he is sick of banging his head against the wall. I watched an interview with him over the weekend, and he spoke the truth about "BOTH" parties.
You guys can sit here and bitch back and forth about Warren and Brown and all the rest. That's fine. That's your right. But until the day this country starts to take serious the third party candidates, this is what you get. Then again, they don't have all the cool commercials. They also aren't allowed to join the debates. I wonder why? You would think that if in a debate they got their asses handed to them so badly, they would be forced to capitulate. Then what's the damage?
Anyway. Have fun fighting over cat poop in the sandbox. Just remember. The lesser of two evils is still evil.

Obama ran on 'transparency' 4 years ago and no president has ever been less tranparent ...... From birth certificate, college records (applications and transcripts), social security number from a state he has never lived in, etc. etc., less is known about him than any president in history. .... The main-stream media has NEVER questioned, tested or challenged this man .... A daily 'free pass'!!!
Obama has blatently LIED to the American public over and over and over again .... Just look at the Banghazi incident as proof of that! ... Incompetence, followed by a major cover-up and the media allowed him to get away with it ...
The economy, food stamp program, national debt, Guantanamo Bay .... failure, failure, failure .........
Enough is enough ......
