Who's who any more?

I don't care too much for politics, but it is quite obvious that i can't help but to see the advertisements on TV for the different politicians running for any given office or seat.
It wasn't until i married my second husband that i even voted.  My feeling was when i see someone worth voting for, i will register. Well, apparently he has that "everyone should vote" attitude and i reluctantly registered.  I gave in to that, but i would NOT choose an affiliation.  I am a proud "Independent"!
Anyway, back to the topic at hand, which is what i was leading up to with all that.  I don't "follow" politics, other than watching the ads. From what i see, it would be kind of hard to follow anyway.  I haven't learned anything about anyone running for office other than what kind of money they took, how they bankrupted a company while paying themselves millions, what kind of lies they told, and how wrestling corrupts our children.  Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't a "campaign" supposed to convince people to vote for you based on YOUR accomplishments, YOUR beliefs, and what YOU will do for the people?  It seems as though politics have turned into a bash-fest.  I have YET to see one ad for what any politician is going to do for me if elected to the seat they are seeking.
Seems to me as though i was better off not voting.......there still isn't anyone worth voting for.
