History Of Obama

A brief history of Obama going negative


This election cycle's barrage of negative campaigning has gotten a lot of attention lately. This week, Political Punch takes a slightly deeper plunge into the slime
.
"All those negative ads don't matter. When you come together, you cannot be stopped," President Obama told supporters at a campaign event in Jacksonville, Florida.

And while it is true that Obama faces a battery of negative ads from independent groups  funded by unknown individuals, and it's also true that Mitt Romney is a relentless negative campaigner
 the president is not so innocent on this charge, either.

A recent study of a 2-week period ending in July found that about 89 percent of Obama's ads carried an anti-Romney message and 94 percent of Romney's ads an anti-Obama message; 2012 is on pace to become the most negative campaign cycle ever.

But just how far back does Obama's negative campaigning go? And how down and dirty were the ads of 2008 compared with today's? Check out this week's Political Punch to find out.

Its how you define negative ads. It is one thing to be negative on a personal level and its another to be negative on failed policies. To say the economy sucks, is negative comment, but its true.

SIP Mutual Funds: A Complete Guide to the Best Options

  What is a SIP? A SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) is a method of investing in mutual funds. Instead of investing a large lump sum all at once, you invest a fixed, smaller amount at regular intervals, such as monthly or quarterly. It's similar to a recurring deposit in a bank.
