Pissed off again. Every time I see somebody say "We desperately need money for our efforts for/against this ballot measure/candidate, please! Because as history and polls have repeatedly shown, undecided voters (the people who dictate this and every election) can only remember the last political ad that they saw.

There are days when I think voter testing might not be such an awful thing.

Actually if a message is repeated enough without a counter message repeated equally, that message sticks with many people. So yes, money can win these battles if one side has lots more money than the other. Thus the war of escalation.
